Having a 2-year-old is like having a teenager. Having a 3-year-old is like having a teenager. Having a 4-, 5- or (insert any age up to 13)-year-old is like having a teenager. Having a 13-year-old is like having a 2-year-old…. No matter what you do as a parent, there always seems to be some confusion on the kid’s part as to how old he or she really is. Until the kid reaches 25….

I’m glad to hear that the kids got to go to a concert. I don’t recall the concert experience when you guys were little, but then again, we were a bit removed from civilization for a while.

Good to hear that Leah is growing and that you are reading “In the Night Kitchen” to Ian.

love,

mom
