Of course he is. And so are you, though I don't suspect you doubt yourself but on the bad moments.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Lots of peace~ma for your household, msbelle.

I just had another bowl of chili. I think this is the best batch I've ever made.

I have six gift bags for Owen's classroom to celebrate his birthday tomorrow (although the actual day is Friday--he doesn't have school). I also did gift bags for his teacher, the assistant and his therapists. It's not overkill to give them a $10 Target gift card and some Dove chocolates is it? I put a thank you in the bag thanking them for all the work they do with O.

Wikipedia begs to differ with the aforementioned list

The list is America’s favorite books, wikipedia’s is best selling books.

Why is wearing your jammies in public a fashion now?

I work on a college campus. I stopped wondering about that a long time ago.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Mac! You must chill!

I say get him a boy sized gerbil ball and let him run run run like crazy until he falls asleep (and floops around in the still rolling ball because that's a funny image).

In other boy news: Emmett was at the Red Sox home opener and got a foul ball off the bat of Manny Ramirez. Now he's in NYC and running a fever. So Brooklynites (Fort Greene precisely) if you see a feverish blonde boy, almost 5 feet tall, about 112 lbs, wearing a Red Sox cap - that's probably him.

Yay blind date for Tom!

Allyson, go you for dealing with the LA city insanity. I know it all seems like too much to handle right now. Hang in there and vent as much as you need to.

msbelle, you're a great mom.

Glee! I just remembered that I have the remains of an ice cream cake in the fridge.
