Matilda is not keen on growing up either.
Though I take that as a sign that she's pretty happy with where she's at.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Jesse, that story is kind of mind-blowing. Whoa.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So creepy, le nubian!!
So it's a certain little boy's birthday today. He spent almost an hour last night crying, mourning that he'd never be 5 years old again. I mean, he was truly heartbroken. I promised him he could be 5 as long as he liked. So as I tucked him in, I asked him how old he'd be in the morning. "5?" I asked. "I think I want to be 6," he answered.
Aw! Happy birthday to him! You should teach him the AA Milne poem that ends, "But now that I'm 6, I'm as clever as clever, so I think I'll stay 6 forever and ever!" Although try to forget about it by this time next year?

Jesse,
I didn't feel stalked or anything, so I didn't think it was creepy. I just figured it was a case of someone who hadn't quite come to terms with her sexual orientation. I wished her the best and moved on, never to hear from her again.

That's very charitable of you. The woman in the story I linked apparently just really got a kick out of fucking with people?

I've seen a number of pseuicide stories, but I've never before seen one with such an array of secondary characters. That's a ton of work to undertake. The woman should be a novelist, really.

Aww, I would say I can't believe that Issac is 6, but seeing as his due-date twin's been six for almost two weeks, I believe it all too much.
