Sam was playing somewhat rough with Graham over the weekend, bonking his teeth fairly hard. It looks like it's significantly loosened one of them, joining two others that were a little bit wiggly. It's strange to think that he'll soon be joining the ranks of adulthood, at least where teeth are concerned.

It's amazing how self-sufficient Sam is, especially compared to Emma. I'll leave him to his own devices for long periods of time, not really worried that he'll get in too much trouble. A couple years ago, he couldn't play by himself for more than ten minutes. Now he goes long stretches, typically because we're busy with Emma.

That's not to say that he doesn't crave his "alone with dad" time. We have a star chart where he can complete tasks and get goodies. Without fail, his choice for a goodie is to spend time alone with me. As you might expect, it makes me feel pretty good as a dad.

Yesterday we went out the the park, having long chats and playing on the equipment. We have a good time together, appreciating each other's sense of humor. Good times.

Sam had a couple dreams he related to me yesterday. In the first, the actress who plays Hermione in the Harry Potter books was in love with him. In the second, he and Emma were being chased by orcs. I think that boy has a rich fantasy life indeed.

Sam's been back to school the last couple days and seems to enjoy it. They had their first visit to the computer center. Sam announced that he had a password that he couldn't tell me, along with his own folder where he could put stuff.
