Dad strolled out of the house. "You kids need any help?" he offered. "I was pretty handy in auto shop class back in high school. I had a regular green thumb."
The twins shot him a look.
"A green thumb?" Abigail inquired.
"That's for plants, not cars and trucks," Andrew said, rolling his eyes.
Dad chuckled. "Shows what you know. My assignment was to restore an old 1949 Cadillac Fleetwood. Wood and wheels takes a green thumb."

"Muscles," Zoë said, stating the obvious. Nearby, her brother and sister shared a look. There she goes again.
"That's right, Zoë," Abigail said patiently. "You have super strength."
"You sure do," Andrew agreed. "We couldn't have built this truck without you."
Zoë nodded enthusiastically. She was proud of herself. It wasn't every baby sister that could lift a truck over her head. What better way for her brother to give it an oil change?

Last but definitely not least is Baby Zoë. She's proof that big things can come in small packages. She still wears a diaper, but she can fly to the moon and back faster than you can say Swiss cheese. What's that? The Space Shuttle needs help? Zoë to the rescue. She puts the miss in mission.

Andrew comes next. He's Abigail's twin brother, younger by a measly eight minutes. If it has wheels, Andrew can ride it. He's masterful, magnificent, and the man on wheels. Not even the proverbial barrel of monkeys would give him trouble. He could chariot those chimps straight to the zoo.

Meet Abigail, the oldest of our heroes by a whole eight minutes. When it comes to sports, she can't be beat—not at martial arts, not at mountain climbing, and certainly not at running marathons. She's the MVP of every sport—the most valuable player. Abigail could even out-climb King Kong up the side of the Empire State Building in New York City.

School Visit: John Paul II Catholic School
[image error]
On January 30, 2012, Charlie and I visited John Paul II Catholic School in Lincoln Park, Michigan. It was a new school for us but staffed by old friends, media specialists Mrs. Jurich and Mrs. Rehling, whom we have known for years. What a terrific day, and I'm not talking only about the Little Caeser's pizza lunch in the teachers lounge. But that was good, trust me! When is pizza ever not good? During our visit, we spoke with three groups of students–K through 2nd first, then 3rd and 4th...
