SPARKY DRAWING THE “I HATE SCHOOL” STRIP / C. 1969

Sparky and Joyce wanted to have a larger family. Their first son was born in February 1952. They named him Charles Monroe Schulz, Jr. and called him Monte. Soon, Lucy had a baby brother, too—Linus was added to the strip.

They made friends with a young couple, Fritz and Lou Van Pelt, who lived nearby. The four of them spent evenings having dinner and then playing cards. Sparky borrowed their last name, Van Pelt, for the characters Lucy and Linus.

But even with new friends, Sparky was not happy in Colorado Springs. He convinced Joyce to move back to Minnesota. In March 1952, after nine months in Colorado Springs, they packed up everything and headed back to Minneapolis. Sparky quickly settled into his familiar life. He and Joyce had two more children: Craig was born in January 1953 and Amy in August 1956.
