The Road to Toofdom

More exciting than political philosphy - K has lost her first tooth! The process started a long month ago with a mere wiggle with a finger, and the journey ended last night with the discovery that her tooth was indeed OUT, in her mouth, which she promptly spit into her hand. No pulling required. I am thankful that I don't have to look at that dangling little thing protruding from her bottom jaw anymore. She is thankful for the four one-dollar bills the tooth fairy left under her pillow.

History in the Making



On this historic evening (MLK day) before one of the most important political days of our lives (Obama's inauguration), I talked with Kennedy about our new President. It's interesting trying to explain the significance of this to someone who doesn't even know what "race" is or what the president does (kind of reminds me of Palin!). She asked where the president lives, and I told her "The White House," the irony of which kind of made me chuckle. She'll be so excited to watch all the festivities on TV tomorrow. May she remember this experience always, especially if the change is as positive as we are all hoping for....

The Great Schlep - Oy!

If my Jewish grandparents were still alive, I would make the schlep to Florida!

Corny


I haven't watched The Daily Show in a while, but I'm sure Jon Stewart had a few jokes about this one.
