One of the greatest things about having a kid is being able to spin horrendously tall tales. When theyre little, their eyes get wide and they watch you tell the story and nod in rapt silence. Then they get a little older and that’s followed by.. “NU UH!” Then they can tell their own.. grin..

thats a great story.. heh

Actually, after I tell a story like that, she usually tops it with something even worse.

Also she’s happy because she got straight A’s on her ballet test yesterday. And came in second in her physical education class (including the boys).

second, i’d like to thank you for coming forth with your open and heartwarming story of pollywog birth. too many families have been too silent for too long, and it’s time that these children were accepted as the miracle they are: a little odd, a little hairy, and the tail ring can be a bit…difficult, but they have their own inspirational story to tell, and one that the world is surely ready to hear, in these troubled times. so thank you, thank you, mig, for your honest bravery.
