That's why babies are just like cars. You should dent them intentionally on the way off the lot just so you don't get so worked up when it happens anyway.

While I didn't go to this extreme, I did refuse to react until I saw blood. It made things much easier on both of us. He would often fall and look at me to see if he should cry, if I didn't react he would giggle and move on.

I wish the lucky parents well. The Boy was cruising the furniture at 8 months and took his first step at 10 months. I am still waiting for common sense and coordination to kick in.

Not at 11 says my down 4 (maybe 5) toothed son.

The Boy is 13 in real age, physically he is 16+, mentally and coordination he is somewhere between 4 and 10.

Aren't all teens horribly coordinated? Poor things, their bodies changing constantly...

Mousey Girl · 05-18-2010, 05:50 PM

Yeah, but it is worse when it is your own. You can't help but think that it is somehow your fault they are that way, because you know you were never that bad, so it has to be something you did.

Or you can be like me and point and laugh and tell everyone, "Yep! That's my boy."

You know how you think of the best comeback when it's too late to say it? Well, it's two days later but...

The kid was circumcised before he left the hospital. Sorta like dented.

So, all we have been hearing for the last 3 months is that Lance Armstrong will be cycling through Bakersfield during this leg of the Amgen Tour. It is happening today, at Bakersfield College. After his crash this morning it seems like the main part of the Central Valley that he will be visiting is the hospital in Visalia.
