But, in fact, we know more than that, and we can share. For starters, the boy's name is Evan. Following a rich Carlson family tradition spanning back to, um, Anna, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes your kids know exactly what you need, even more than you do. One day, a couple months ago, Anna and I were having one of the regular disputes over naps (I think she should take one, she doesn't) and I was getting really frustrated and tired. I was about 8 months pregnant at the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, we knew our house was old, but it's pretty interesting to see some evidence. Darren, Rod and David, our framing crew, started to rip siding off of our kitchen wall this week, and they found some newsprint--pages from _The People's Home Journal_ and _Mail Order Monthly Magazine_, weathered and beat-up, dated October 1903.

Now I [...]]]></description>

That's what just hit me as I'm looking out the window. That, and my god, what a big pile of mud our construction site is becoming. What is this, Seattle? Calcutta?

Okay, maybe it's not that bad. But this is a lot of rain for Colorado, in September. And just as [...]]]></description>

We think we're doing some sort of game, but she knows it's a didactic exercise, and she's not going to play by the boring rules.

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, in the midst of a mundane lunchtime, my daughter exhibited a beatiful moment of personal creativity that inspired me to keep the TV off so that her brain can be on.
