One of the roles that has emerged for me in 2007 is to put these two energetic younglings to sleep. It’s a wonderful feeling when Elysia and Gareth want me to stay with them until they fall asleep. The whole process might take up to one hour if they are still charged up. 🙂 I…

Highs and Lows 2007 Part I
And now back to the beginning of 2007 … Overall, it’s been a very full, fulfilling, tragic and eventful year. There was a lot more. … but I decided to just pick whatever that came to mind more vividly. MARCH – Low – My friend’s reputation was questioned by people who don’t really care for…
