Our little family in the great big state of Texas

About a week ago, we read a children's book about various sites in America. It was very basic, with lots of big pictures and not too many words. Today, driving home from Jacob's sports class he asks me... "So where is the Mister Sippi? I know about Mississippi, so if there is a Miss, there must be a Mister!" These are the kinds of questions Jacob comes up with - out of the blue. So I wonder if that thought has been tumbling around in his head the past week, only to pop out after an hour of speaking german! I can barely think after I've had to try to communicate in german for an hour!
