What shall we talk about today? How about responsibilities for a six (almost seven) year old? What do you expect your six year old to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Books, television shows, movies, and other media bring a lot of subject matter to our kids. Most of those things, I&#8217;d like to put my two cents worth into as well. Books that discuss religion or spirituality, political leanings, abstinence vs safe sex, romance, trust, friendship, why doing the right thing usually works out for [...]]]></description>

It will probably be easiest to explain the book by just copying the blurb: Gavin de Becker shares with readers his remarkable insight into human [...]]]></description>

We have baby carrots, grapes, bananas, blueberries, oranges, apples, cheese sticks, organic yogurt pouch thingies, cheezits, chex mix, and fixins for several kinds [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve made my rounds to boards &#8217;round the world this morning, and so far, there is nothing. I also don&#8217;t see that the Justice Department has made any kind of statement yet in the Guatemala [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People who are familiar with adoption from China know that our children were most likely abandoned by their original family. They know they spent time in an orphanage, and they know they may or may not have spent time in foster care in China. They know they aren&#8217;t living with their biological parents. They know [...]]]></description>

GlitterGirl is at that age where she has days that she apparently must be&#8230; contrary. Quarrelsome. I do a version of the blue square with her by stating something obvious.

Some of our fruits and vegetables are organic, but not all of them. Our lotions don&#8217;t have petroleum products in them. The girls spent the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To follow up on the cuss words topic, we have what I call &#8220;impolite words&#8221; that aren&#8217;t said. Their school forbids words like stupid, dumb, and idiot. Those words have the same consequences as actual cuss words and are never said at school &#8211; not in any context. I&#8217;ve followed through with that at home, [...]]]></description>
