Shabbas/Sabbath/Family Day

We've tried something new this year. We reorganized the restaurant schedule so Nick has Saturdays off. Sarah stays off the computer, off the email, and keeps her head out of books. Coco stays home--friends come over, but she tries to stay home as much as possible. We do things purposefully, kindly, and together this day. We are keeping a journal of our activities, which so far include nature walks, breakfast excursions, and movie marathons. (Don't let anyone tell you the Eighties weren't awesome cinematically-- Johnny Dangerously, you fargin iceholes?)

Here's a shot from what might just be the best breakfast Coco's ever had:
