IKEA

We are off for a day at one of our favorite places. Yes, Ikea. Strange, but true.



The song is also one of our favorite songs. It is by the amazingly talented Jonothan Coulton, who is also responsible for this amazing cover of an old song:



Gives you a better appreciation of that song, dosen't it.

Both of these songs are constant companions for me. They are the ring tones for my phone, and theword IKEA has not actually been said in months. It is always sung. Jonothan Coulton issues his work under a creative commons liscense, in the hopes that people will take his work and make it better. I can't imagine how anyone could improve what he does.

In other news, we had a meeting with the boy's teacher today. She had wonderful things to say about him. He is beginning the process of learning to read and write, and has progressed in many other subjects. We are so proud of him!
