		<description><![CDATA[Sunday was a slow and rainy day, very much welcome as we have not had rain here since 1996.  It’s true, ask my lawn. Rain brushed against the windows and falling acorns made the sound of popcorn popping as the wind shook them from the trees onto the roof.  Football noise filled the house and [...]]]></description>

So this morning, as he put on his 3rd and final jacket, I said to him that his first order of business today was to locate the other two [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sean was born six weeks early and spent the first week of his life in the NICU.  He was teeny tiny, but was never in any danger, other than being sent home to live with two clueless people. Before we left the hospital, the nurse showed me the proper way to wrap my baby in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I acquired a twin bed for Sean.  Heretofore, the poor giraffe-legged child had been sleeping in a toddler bed.  Toddler bed, we all know, is code for “crib on the ground”. I know what you are thinking. “What is wrong with y’all? Can you not even manage to get your six-year-old child a decent [...]]]></description>

It is a big plastic jar that looks like a pickle jar, only it has a slot on the top which shows a digital reading of how much money has been deposited.  The digital reading is about [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So then, Sean’s homework assignment for tonight was to draw a picture representing fall. I was excited about that project because of the many creative possibilities.  I envisioned that he would draw a field of pumpkins or falling leaves. Or maybe pumpkins or falling leaves. Or something like that. So I gave him a piece [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[AD and I are both creative types, so it is not so surprising that Sean is creatively bent as well.  AD is creative in a money-making, problem-solving, making-the-world-more-functional kind of way.  Whereas I don’t know how to do any of that; I just seem to need to swim upstream. Having been upstream a time or [...]]]></description>
