First words...

This weekend Jackson and Lilac have been on a four-day trip to Quebec with the french department of Greens Farms Academy. Although we mostly did not hear from them, we did get a surprising phone call from Jackson today, asking--in all honesty mind you--if he could purchase a Siberian Husky. We assume that he planned to smuggle it back into the United States in his carry-on bag. The very surprising thing about it was that he really though this was an okay idea, and, perhaps we were being unreasonable for saying no. Lilac on the other hand told us about how she ordered two meals while there and they messed them up both times. Now, either Lilac is really bad at ordering in French, or the Quebecois were, in fact, out to get her. I have been to Canada, so I am inclined to thing it is actually the latter.
