&#8220;Mommy yelled, &#8216;LILY!&#8217; and she fell off the porch and all the blood came out of her head.&#8221;

It was one of those rare moments of parenting that are as exciting and dramatic as in the movies &#8212; I&#8217;m put in mind of the scene in Kramer vs. Kramer when Justin [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We were on our way to the Dairy Goat Parade and Festival in Spindale, NC (where else would we spend a Saturday afternoon?) when it happened.
We were rolling around mountain passes, zinging like a pinball whacked between paddles, cruising through towns with names like Batcave and Chimney Rock.
&#8220;It&#8217;s too far,&#8221; Jake whined.  Until this moment [...]]]></description>

This makes me think a lot of things:  How quickly time passes when you have kids.  How scary it is to watch time pass so quickly, especially when you have kids.  And how I seem to be repeating myself.

		<description><![CDATA[Today was the end-of-the-school year potluck in Jake&#8217;s preschool class.  Same summer-ish excitement that I recall from the end of my somewhat-older-than-two-and-a-half-years-old school years.  Same excuse to eat ice cream instead of lunch.  Same sense of happy displacement at having parents on the playground in the middle of the day.
Plus, as a mother, a little [...]]]></description>

Mike and I both grinned at each other like kids taking their first bite of a Quarter Pounder &#8212; thrilled but also queasily aware that we shouldn&#8217;t be.
