  • Some great teenage siblings

    These two kids brother and sister, were flooded out of their home. If I'm understanding the story correctly, their family was allowed to move temporarily into a Sioux City, Iowa retirement community --one of those with all sorts of housing options and levels of independence. The two teens have been spending much time with their new neighbors, teaching them Wii games, playing bingo with them, and even learning knitting.

    I like the very last statement at the end of the article. "They are certainly proof that good things come from adversity."
    "There is some ontological doubt as to whether it may even be possible in principle to nail down these things in the universe we're given to study." --text msg from my kid

    "It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men." --Frederick Douglass
