The Dating

Friday I told the sixers about speed dating. Then we went outside to the picnic tables and did speed dating literature log talks. Each date lasted about 90 seconds and couples talked about different topics with their various partners, stuff like: predictions, representations of power, character report cards. After five or six switches, the final dates spent some time together reading on the playground. Before we went back inside we had some time for mixing, mingling, and idle chatter. One sixer told me that the activity was fun, but asked that I call it something else because the whole idea of speed dating made him feel awkward. Posted by Picasa

alex's belly looks really cute. you can tell she's not the swollen-type. and almost due! i think i looked like that at 6 months. plus i had much bigger hands. :)
