How ever it gets you there . . .
Peyton was standing in front of my van in the garage, when he turned to Monte and said, "N, I, S, S, A, N. That spells car."
Yes it does, baby, yes it does.
Yes it does, baby, yes it does.

Stop the presses
Stephen presented me with this handwritten story this afternoon after school:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Attack of the Glowing Monsters, By Stephen Ellis
Hi, I'm Stephen Ellis. I'm in the agent BIXQ. We heard a loud beep. Mason is my friend. Beep means there is trouble in the world. There was a glowing monster in China, and off we went to defeat that glowing monster with the powers of the agents BIXQ, one of the most powerful agencies in the world. The glowing monster was smashing building after building. We finally made it there, and we were so so so hungry and so so so thirsty for a drink and snack. We're the lucky ones. Then we attacked the glowing monster but it is no use without the crystal of China, and we did not give up. They were trying but still no use, the crystal of China was in his hand, and then we got a hold of it, but they lost their grip and still no use, but they had a steel cannon and payed for it, and got the crystal of China and defeated the glowing monster and celebrated. It was very very very very fun and we had a drink and a snack. The agency BIXQ had saved the day. The end.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agency was spelled agentse, snack was spelled snake, crystal was spelled cristel, and sometimes China was Chinea, but he got monster and powerful and smashing and hungry and glowing right, and the story has a fantastic beginning, middle and end (which I know even college students can't always pull off), and when I asked about BIXQ, he explained that was the agency's name and it was supposed to be like that, because the letters were other secret words. An acronym, people! And on top of it all, he saves the day with his brother!
What an effort from my little guy!
