how do you blow out half a candle?

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! This year we are staying home, figuring that with an infant we wanted to avoid the hectic world of airports or highways. The turkey is in the overn as I write.

Jude will have no turkey. He is, after all, just 6 months old. 6?!? you say? Yes... it's not only Thanksgiving but also Jude's 6-month-birthday.

So maybe after dinner is on the table and the kitchen is cleaned up, we'll pause and celebrate a little bit for the little guy, too. He is certainly the most obvious thing to be thankful for this year.
