Close

Close - maybe it's just the linguist in me and no one else cares...

Pronounce with a soft 's' klōs and it describes us - a family - close - near both in proximity and for all of you faraway family close to my heart...

Change the 's' to a 'z' klōz and it's the end of something - the close of another year for example...

and it's been a pretty happy one around here...

we've been playing lots of games - Scrabble's my favorite (the linguist again) - but I've played enough Phase 10 until I'm finally tired of it...

When we can keep Jack from nosing in - we play Jenga - and sometimes we just build with the blocks - the towel is there to muffle the clatter of the blocks as they topple over on the hardwood floor...

    never thought about the word close that way - but that's a neat viewpoint.

    love, k
