Jon came home the other day with several participation ribbons and two medals (real metal medals), for being on the third place team in teeball and second place team for floor hockey. He is very, very proud of his awards. It’s nice to see him so enthused about aspects of his life that we have barely seen.

In other domestic cuteness news, I purchased “Le Festin“, a sweet French song from the Ratatouille soundtrack (it’s a fantastic score—and like all good scores, seamless with the movie itself). We decided to play it for Jon without any hints about what he was about to hear, to see if he’d remember it. What were we thinking? Within a second he broke out in a wide grin, and immedaitely exclaimed “Ratatouille!” He instantly wanted it on his playlist, so I imagine he’ll want to know what she’s saying, and we’ll have to find the French lyrics.
