Phantom of the Kazoo

We're certain Zoe will be the musical one in the family. She had been playing a mean kazoo since she was six months old and can carry a tune on the recorder as well. Here she is playing this Leap Frog contraction like she's the Phantom of the Opera or something. She even hams it up with dramatic faces and gestures. It looks to me like Kali is playing Christine to Zoe's Phantom, as she looks appropriately distressed.

The Zone

Zoe antagonizes Ben with her best KiSS face (minus the hand gesture... which coincidentally means "play" in sign language) and by kicking his chair from behind. Kali tries to get him to play too. But when Ben is in the ZONE on his cow chair, there's no getting in.

You light up my life

That last of the Christmas pics. But certainly not the least.

The lights are on and thankfully Zoe is home and in the hizzouse.

I wonder how the saying would go if you were referring to a smart person with multiple personalities. Instead of "The lights are on, but no one's home," would it be "The lights are on and MANY people are home?" And what if one of those personalities wasn't very smart, would it be "the lights are on and many folks are home, except Bob. He's a real doofus?"
