No More Teenagers

This weekend marked the 20th year anniversary of the last time I was pregnant!

Not coincidentally, The Boy celebrated his 20th birthday. No more teenagers...
a mixed blessing this empty nester is starting to get used to. Maybe . . .

Bicentennial Birthdays

There have been more specials, books and conversations regarding Abraham Lincoln in the past 4-5 months. At first I thought it was just because of the election, but it was actually all leading up to the 200th anniversary of his birth.

Born on the same day and same year as Lincoln, Charles Darwin would also be celebrating his 200th birthday yesterday. For all the years I'd heard about both great men, this was the first time I'd ever been aware they were contemporaries.

Why is it so much more fun to 'decorate' this blog than to post? lol

Happy 2009!
