Benjamin has begun studying Latin this year and he wrote to his Dad about loving his Latin class. When we went to the zoo last week he was able to read "Gray Wolf" in latin and tell he then told me "White Wolf" in latin. Incredibly cool! Nathan sent Ben a gift of "Green Eggs and Ham" in latin and after Ben opened it he ran to his room and got his english version and read them side by side.

Latin is our origin, dear friend. A good blog.
Dawn,
What a cute post. I thrilled at the visual of Benjamin reading the two versions side-by-side. Thank you for taking the time to go this "extra" mile--he will never forget it, and his own children will benefit from the impact you have on him. Again, his future wife will bristle at the standard to which she'll be compared--but such is life. I love you. Thanks for loving us.

Dawn,
How cool Ben is learning Latin-a very hard language from what I've heard. Our priest from church sometimes does some of our mass in Latin and I love it.
