[...] it’s because I’m scared. I’m not sure what I’m scared of exactly, but Stephen @ Live Granades in an old post summed it up [...]

It will ever be thus. When you were about 1, I took you to my office “just to pick something up.” You stood in the chair at my typing desk and started banging on the typewriter, only to have the adjustable shelf collapse and precipitate you, headfirst, onto the floor-bound typewriter. Your head split open; I made a mad dash to you, swept you up, held you, fumbled my handkerchief out and onto your quickly reddening head; locked the door and closed it; ran downstairs to my truck; got my truck keys out, the door open, us in and the truck started; held you and steered with one hand while shifting with the other, careening through the streets toward the hospital with your screaming supplying the siren. We made it to the emergency room and the doctor stitched you up and you survived. But I was never sane after that. I’m STILL waiting for the law to arrest me for child endangerment, if not something worse. Of course, for a parent, there IS no worse. We ALWAYS feel that we’re only one step ahead of the law, or disaster. And, in my case, I was NO steps ahead of your mother, who took a long time to trust me with you alone!

Sorry, that was me. I’m using Aaron’s laptop and forgot to log in. ;P

Then there’s that whole thing of cocking an eyebrown. Does this work for eyeblues and eyegreens, too?

It’s a good thing that we have a strategic reserve of shoulders in case of a shortage. The warehouse where the reserve is kept is filled with football pads and epaulettes.

I’m still not entirely over that feeling.

Isn’t that comforting!

Just amused by the idea of your shoulders as a secret weapon. That’s all.

Far be it from the single guy to comment here, but … you know a hell of a lot more about it than I do!

Every morning, I get up, look at this little person, and wonder if this is the day the Sims-Social-Worker will take him away because I don’t have a clue as to what I am doing.

I need to tell myself life is not the Sims.
