...and Happy Birthday, Liam!


Yesterday was also the birthday of this guy, the super human Lima Bean, who has crossed over into the double digits. Happy Birthday, Liam: you are my favorite elf, golfer, baseball player, leprechaun, and zucchini-listener.

For awhile Liam was on a quest to deny the value (even the existence) of letters (numbers being so much better), but now he's a powerful reader and writer, just wrestling those letters to the ground. Liam is also the inventor of the rare and elusive 55-dollar bill.

Happy Birthday from Minnesota, Liam! We remember that back two or three years ago, you gave us a tutorial on infinity. You also gave us some interesting and good ideas about language. You warned us about getting into a language rut--using the same words too many times. Keep up the good work! Joyce & Wally

Thanks, Elenabella and Joyce for such an insightful tribute to the Lima Elf...who wondered, not long ago, how he would ever build a proper leprechaun trap in one evening. But he did it!
