  1. I know the expression, but it should mean something about the author. I detest his work. I'm dreading revisiting any of it with DS.
  2. I'm so sorry, how miserable. I hope your appointment gives you a diagnosis.
  3. Both of you have me beat. My seeds sprouted while soaking and I waved the white flag immediately.
  4. Congratulations! I'm so glad DH stepped up for you.
  5. No guilt, Mama. That poem is chilling; it clearly expresses a sick dynamic.
  6. Our niece had this. After many ER visits she was hospitalized and eventually transferred to the children's hospital. Does your DD experience any relief if she pulls her knees to her chest? I remember that was one of the clues. I'm so sorrry that you and DD are going through this. Hugs.
  7. I was 43 when I had our youngest, and the doctor said no more. Those are the reasonable reasons. The heart reason is that with DS2's birth, our family felt complete. I treasure him and sometimes feel a twinge of sadness that I'll never have another baby, but I have absolutely no desire to add another child to our family.
  8. I homeschool a fifth grader and have a two year old, and I couldn't homeschool without some help with the little one. Could you hire a mother's helper? I'm having trouble quoting, but Garga gave you great advice. Read it ten times!
  9. Jann, I'm so sorry to hear this. I just prayed for a miracle, and my heart is with your entire family.
  10. Well, that's rotten! If you decide to send your husband you can rent tents, etc. from REI.
  11. My DD is closing in on sixteen, but I can pass along some advice that I received regarding a nephew in his early twenties. Like you, I felt this was a great young man, but was very concerned about some of his choices. I asked my son's babysitter (a college senior) how she thought I should approach him. She told me to tell him how I felt ONE time, with love and without judgment, and not to raise the subject again.
  12. I liked it. I miss Parenthood, so it's a good fit for me.
