Inside Adam’s Brain…
…Well really, what goes on there is anyone’s guess. We got his “Progress Report” from his preschool yesterday and boy did they work hard on putting a positive spin on all his ‘traits.’ His teacher said that “Adam is a bundle of energy and you never know what kind of adventure you will be going […]
My Daughter Myself?
When Caity was born, I was surprised to have a girl. With a family overloaded with boy cousins and second cousins, Adam was no surprise to me. A delight yes, but his gender no. For the first two years of her life, gender really didn’t come into play. She was Caity and she was her […]

My entire family is in the teeny tiny bath tub. And elmo. There is a lot of shrieking and screaming going on. It is just me and the dog out here. I think the cats are in the closet. Callie won’t leave the house now.Last night she was growling and barking at the joggers and […]
