And we're the girls in the house so there is a certain amount of latitude that comes from that. Childless does have it's appeal some days!<BR/><BR/>elizabeth, i just don't ignore what she already knows. Besides, pubes are funny.<BR/><BR/>egan, curious isn't it?<BR/><BR/>lu, you are sweet to say that. I screw up as much as any other parent i expect. I think same sex parents can mention things that the other one shouldn't. Pubes are probably one of those things. :)<BR/><BR/>lucia, there are many who might disagree. i still don't know if i am doing the right thing by treating her more as an adult sometimes. Sigh.<BR/><BR/>de, this is done over the computer, As i am informed everytime is say it wrong, IM is on the computer, it's called texting on the phone. I hate the phone thing because of the triple key pad thing. No way. You are right about blogher, i should just go, because i can. But without you, it will be less fun.menohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18065283682414369608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306964.post-32833169446628017482007-04-11T11:33:00.000-07:002007-04-11T11:33:00.000-07:00Trim your pubes?!

Fiona is just one long out-loud stream of consciousness. I've recently grabbed a daytime hour here or there and realize I <I>can</I> still think. I dread the idea of my phone beeping or buzzing of whatever they do...well, maybe the buzzing, but then if it's my daughter? eww. And then today, I heard a commercial claiming that "your phone can even help you keep your kid off pot! Just IM now and ask what he's doing."<BR/><BR/>How could you possibly be alone at BlogHer? Please. Just decide to go already. If I didn't have kids, I would go, and I'm the most paranoid introvert in the whole crowd. I am.

You're relationship is so open with Em, so accepting and still you maintain expectations, set boundries and make them stick without beating her over the head with them. Humor is key--but with the boys- I think I'll hold off on any mention of the triming of pubes -- it just wouldn't go over with boys like it would with a girlluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14486545199810361580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306964.post-86567037401174858512007-04-11T09:40:00.000-07:002007-04-11T09:40:00.000-07:00Ha, I feel the same way about IM too.
