Matthew was nicknamed "Peanut" by his mother shortly after birth. How shortly, we're not really sure anymore; within the first few sleep-deprived days is all we remember.
Matthew never did go through that period of sleeping all the time that baby books tell you newborns are supposed to have. Since his first abnormally alert days he's just become more and more active, and at some point his uncle Grant conferred upon him the moniker Savage.

Melissa reads
After some reading lessons started in pouts of "NO. I don't WANT to learn to read," and ended in tears I did have our doubts that this would ever happen...
Reading for the pleasure of reading
After a year and a half of teaching her, she now reads independently and for the fun of it. We find piles of books marking wherever she's been.
