I still enjoy the antiquated medium known as the newspaper, so we remain subscribers of the Kansas City Star. Joshua seems like a smart kid, but despite that he's not yet setting childhood development records by reading, so he derives his enjoyment of the newspaper by retrieving it from the driveway. On days when Meghan takes the kids for walks around the neighborhood, they usually get the paper. Specifically, Joshua sees it and yells "Paper!", and Meghan lets him pick it up and carry it to the house. On Sundays we bring it in on our way into the house after church. But since we didn't go yesterday, we never ended up getting the paper. Today's paper was delivered, as expected, so for all of today we had two newspapers at the end of our driveway. I needed to go buy some supplies tonight for our recovering family, particularly some bananas to appease the young morning crew, so I took Joshua with me. On the way back in, he was delighted to see two newspapers and declared "Papers!" I let him grab them, including yesterday's large Sunday edition, and here he walks them up to the house, albeit in a distracted manner.
