After two hands of Uno, the game deteriorated into card-throwing, so they moved on to something else. I was getting tonight's dinner into the crock pot, and from my spot in the kitchen I could hear their conversation. They were sitting on the couch, poring over a huge book on the history of science that their grandpa recently brought them.
"Where's Edison?" demanded Willem.
"I just wanted to look through the book," said poor put-upon Nels as he carefully turned the pages.
"WHERE'S EDISON?"
Leave it to Willem to bring bullying to nerd-dom.

What a crack up! I miss your boys.
Oh, so funny.... I have a feeling that Anders would like your boys. =)
Gretchen, from what I gather from your blog, they are birds of a feather :)
Wow - Willem's G G'pa and I had a marvelous time visiting Edison's lab at Ford's Deerfield Village Museum. Looks like you've recorded another commonality between Willem and his G G'pa - both Edison fans. Dad's 100th birthday would be this coming Monday, Nov. 29th. He's my favorite inventor, of course. :)
Make that two of us missing your boys! I told Amelia the other day that there was a lot of snow at your house, and she REALLY wanted to see pictures of N & W playing in it. Just letting you know...
