I know it ...Rough week, but it's finally over. I know it was tough on you both, especially you, who had to work and simultaneously worry about Buttercup's well being. It’s a shame employers - for the most part - aren’t too modifiable when allowing single parents to work from home. Although the labor involved (raising a baby) is completely out of love, it’s nonetheless a tough and demanding task. In the end, by allowing you to work from home not only would it raise productivity, but it can also be a huge morale elevator. They live in the dark ages.<br><br>Now, you wrote that Buttercup was playing pattacakes, correct? While “pattacakes” is completely acceptable, I think the preferred spelling of this playful pastime is patty cakes. I know because I still play it...ALL the time! My friends usually need a six-pack to get them going, but once we start the whole afternoon blows by sooooo quickly! But it’s a shame they have to be out of it to play. It ruins the experience when you have slurred speech, don’t you think? I was thinking of leaving my car and taking aimless rides on public busses to see if I could get a fellow passenger to play with me. Do you think I’d get thrown out? I think it would ruin the monotony of the ride and maybe make their day a little brighter. I dream of the day in which one of those busses has to pull to the side because everyone in it, including the driver, got a case of uncontrollable patty cakes. <br><br>Someday.<br><br>Blessings,<br>Tom<br><br>PS<br>Were you able to find the song “I Go Poopie in My Diapies”? The version I have was recorded recently by Keith Richards.Tom in Vegashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17821971426359725229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472488966378622023.post-73427775904995239212007-08-18T15:12:00.000-07:002007-08-18T15:12:00.000-07:00If you must clean wear Mia then she will be close ...If you must clean wear Mia then she will be close to you and maybe sleep a bit. I would wear Glenys around in the first few months we were together until she really just wanted to walk a bit. You are doing right by her to stay with her. It is a difficult adjustment for both of you. It is also hard to be patient with yourself but you need grace and patience too.<br><br>BeverlyRamblingMotherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04148625565336724234noreply@blogger.com
