Meh. I kinda don't even want to do believing in Santa at all--the road to disbelief was kind of traumatic for me, and I think it was for Emmett as well. I'd be perfectly happy to transition over the next year or so from "Real guy with a magic key [since we have no chimney]" to "Was a real guy, was a saint, did lots of good things for as many people as he could, and now we remember his goodness by telling these stories about him."
Timelies all!

ION, today's early morning old-school L&O has Gina Torres and Claire Danes!
About the fifth thing Matilda said this morning was, "Where's my pony?"
Followed shortly thereafter by, "I want to see Lily again."

My kids don't seem to have trouble accepting that not everyone believes in Santa and the tooth fairy without it undermining their beliefs. Of course Franny didn't believe in the tooth fairy herself until she decided to change her mind.
In other words, kids can be OK with things that adults are not.
In me news, I caught my kids' cold and can now accurately judge how sick they are. I am bummed because I wanted to go to brunch with Perkins et al, but I don't want to expose any wee ones to this chesty cold.
Hec, we really need to arrange a b.org 2.0 F2F for all the kids. It would be such a blast.

Y'know... Abby's almost at babysitting age.
rather than doing the touch up trim work that needs doing, I have spent hours cleaning up years of messy painting over door hardware and plugs. really only got one plug clean and about half another plus half of one know. slow ass work. I just think clean lovely brass doorknobs might be a help with showing this place, rather than ones that are half paint black half brass.
