"Sss" is the new shorthand for "seven."

This latest video is short and sweet, but it sums up a pretty fascinating bit of sibling behavior. In Silas's quest to become just like Luke, he's accidentally learning wacky things that his parents would never have thought to push. In fact, seeing Silas attempt to potty train himself, try to sing along with the alphabet song, and various other "big boy" [i.e. LUKE!] things has us rethinking our future educational strategy. Ultimately, we're thinking of saving money by keeping Silas home from school forever and just having him hang out with Luke when he gets home.

Anyway, about a month ago, Silas started doing this:

The other side benefit is that this video documents exactly the length of Silas's attention span.

Hey! I ran into Allie Germanesco the other night in Atlanta and she told me you had a website. Thought I would check it out. Sounds like your family is doing well. I too have 2 little boys (Barrett 2 1/2 and Watson 5months). Wow how time flies.

Hey, Beau! I see I'm not the only LHS grad that found this site! What a great family you have now! Time has really flown since the high school days. I'm living in Birmingham, AL with my husband (no kids, just dogs so far). Seeing you on this made me think of the days when I picked you up for school every day in my old (smoking) 1980 Caprice Classic. Glad to see you are doing well!
