  3. Devika, I have 2 little kids. It was probably my youthful good looks that confused you, yes?

    Polona, lovely to have you back :)

  7. Yes, youthful good looks. Such a burden... I know exactly how you feel. :)

    But we all have crosses to carry...

    The mixture of a child's sorrow in the midst of celebration... there is something humorous. But the detail of stapling also gives the haiku a sense of impatience. There is both love, tenderness and pragmatism in this... I like it.

  8. Many thanks for your continued interest.

    The pageant went well. I was surprised at how many Buzz Lightyear and Spiderman Easter bonnets there were.

  9. //Many thanks for your continued interest. //

    Such a forensic way of saying that!

    Ha!

    My girls will probably want to dress as Star Wars characters this year. Maybe my youngest daughter will still want to be a witch.

  10. Thats so cute, Patrick. I hope the youngest chooses to be a witch. Hollywood can wait another year... though dressing up as a Jedi Knight would be way cool
