  A friend emailed me to ask how the kids are. Typically, she would know better because I often complain that family and friends would know perfectly well how the kids are if they would just read the kids' blog now and then.
So, protectively, she added that she'd checked the blog before asking. Point well taken. I seem to have written a lot of entries these last few weeks about things other than kids. Which negates the whole purpose of this blog. My other blog is supposed to be my brilliant commentary on the world, and this is the kids' brilliant development.
I feel very Seinfeld: "Worlds are colliding! " I think the biggest reason I haven't detailed their lives lately is because both children seem to be in huge periods of transition right now, and I'm waiting to see what's going to happen. I should stop waiting. Childhood is one giant transition, and this blog is here to document the process, sprinkled with witty humor and tearful discoveries. I'm going to work on two separate updates, one for each child, so the whole world can see just how the kids are.
