We have colds

Raia keeps coming to me and asking me to "sweep" her nose. (And, no, "sweep" and "wipe" do not sound at all alike in Russian.)

Hi Phyllis,
Just wanted to respond to your post on Mike's blog and let you know that Yes, we are having a boy! All sticks and snails and puppy dog tails for us. (Though I think we would have gotten those things with a girl - just like you guys!) Just months to go now.

Sorry - meant to say just THREE months to go. Time to get our act together...

I had a student who used to ask to "broom" the floor which I thought was odd. Raia's use of sweep is better than asking you to "mop my nose," I guess! Mop might be more accurate when you have a cold.
