This week has been a rough one. It started out with a leaking g-tube. Then a weekly weigh in resulting in yet another loss. When you are four years old and weigh only 23.5 pounds, each and every ounce counts. Losing .5 in a week has a way of making your parents worried out of their gourds a wee bit nervous.

Little A has begun his year of Waldorf preschool. The rhythm is similar to the parent and tot program that we have been a part of for the past 2 years but with some subtle differences.

Katie was strutting around with Mary on her left hip and a feather duster in her right hand."This is easy, Mom," she said with a tone that implied she didn't know why I was always complaining about such a thing. Yeah, you go girl.Did anybody else have to vacuum 2 cups off rice of the school room floor?
