(our family: Joe, me, Porter, and Dallin)

Porter and Dallin are coloring pictures right now. They are using stencils sent to them by Grammy. Porter just drew a star with a face on it and numerous "scratches" on it. He says it was in fight with another star. Dallin is drawing blobs. He got tired of it for a minute and started shaking his pencil. He said the pencil wanted to dance. And it did. Porter also drew a picture of our family. It was the most exciting thing Dallin has seen in a long time. Porter showed it to him and explained who each person was. After the explanation, Dallin said, "Dat is me!, Dat is Mom!!, Dat is Dad!!!, Dat is you!!!!" Each sentence was said in a more excitable voice than the last. He was talking at dog whistle pitch near the end. Porter also drew an apple tree with poison tree while Dallin played "sissors tic tack toe" (a game of his own creation that involves cutting his paper into to tiny pieces). He says he won.
