Weeks 3 & 4 check in -- Antonia and Jonathan

Antonia -- yes!

Jonathan -- Here's a few things that he's done to man up/grow up this week . . .

  • Removed all vestiges of his childhood from his parents house (well, maybe not ALL, but everything that his mom isn't saving for grandchildren). It was a fraught weekend, and he was brutal in his commitment to getting rid of stuff (childhood stuffed animals, yearbooks, old art projects, photographs). The downside is now we have an absurd amount of Star Wars figures in our basement. Oh and did I mention the 6 foot tall Darth Vader cardboard cutout?
  • Took apart the gas fireplace and followed the hazy instructions on how to re-position the logs.
  • Drove our friends' van in the snow. I think this was his first snow-driving experience.
