Cash, when billytea is here (August 31), can you bring the Os down to go to the zoo with us?
Ayup. Are you going in the morning on Thursday? We can definitely make that.
WOOT!!! We can go whenever is good for you and the Os!!!
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now tagless for your comfort.

It'll take us 2 hours to get there, so maybe we can plan for late morning (10:30-11:00). We can have lunch there and head home in the afternoon.

Oh, good grief. Now Target.com is having trouble accessing the information to allow you to use any kind of gift certificate.
Stupid Target.com. I was told to "try again later."

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Cindy, K-Bug was a mother's helper for a neighbor a couple of summers ago. The family had adopted 5 kids and she liked having K-Bug over even if it was to just watch some of the kids while she bathed the others. I can't imagine going from zero to five kids and being able to balance all the parental stuff.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
she always wonders about it, when she has a kid who has never cried at least once or twice, about being left at school, by a parent.
Unsurprisingly, that would be me. I think I shooed my parents away on my first day of Montessori.

What is even happening?
ita, had you been home with a parent for all the years prior to Montessori?

Herding cats for fun
Aaawww. Em loves Aimee. Unsurprising, that. Going to preschool is teaching her how to deal with separation anxiety, but don't forget that you're also teaching her that you'll always come back for her.
I also wish that I could spend the day taking naps and having somebody bring me French Toast, preferably with sides o'maple syrup and homemade strawberry jam. Maybe some whipped cream, too. Ooh! And bacon, and orange juice, and and and and... Hm. Better ask for a pony while I'm at it.

I'm trying to remember--there might have been a couple months of daycare in NY before I went to Montessori in Ottawa. But I was notorious for impatiently waiting for my parents to leave, or for abandoning them entirely.
