"I hear church!"

That was Ethan's response to hearing a portable listening device for the first time. In this case it was my iPod shuffle. I put the ear buds in his ear while Matt Redman's "Blessed Be the Name" was playing. His eyes widened, then he looked up at me and said, "I hear church!" His little head started bobbing up and down and the beat quickly took over his body as he went into a full-on jig (it's a cross between Ed Grimly and Curly from the 3 stooges). The dancing kept him going through the 2nd song "God of Wonders", at which point he started singing the chorus as loud as he could, "You are ho-yee, ho-yee" (he has trouble with L's). It was all very cute.

I just thought it was cool that he associates church with singing, dancing and fun.

Someone should update this here blog!

Seriously, who can I pay to post something, anything here? Perfectly good space here too.

Things have been somewhat slow here 'round Casa Garcia. I got glasses for the first time. My eyes are still thanking me. The Los Garcia's trekked up to my step-mom's house for the 1st time since my dad died. I finally got around to playing with my iPod (thanks Nat&Ramona), it is muy cool! We had a great Halloween. Oh yeah, my wife hit the big 3-0! She continues to rock!!

I'll probably eloaborate more on this stuff later. Overall though, things are well with us. The winter of 2005 started off crisis-free which is a good thing.
