The Last Day of Preschool
What a difference a year makes. Does he look impossibly old to anyone else? “I’m going to be a little bit sad, Mom” as he realized that today was his last day of preschool. Then he thought about it for … Continue reading

The Dat and the Nake
Pax and I have a new game. We play it everyday, for as long as I can possibly stand it. Or as long as my knees can possibly stand it. (Admittedly, some of this shit gets old fast.) The … Continue reading
