maillotpois, every time I see that avatar I get a smile....a metric century is great, wonder how long it'll take before the boyo can go that far? Well, we'll see, we'll see. I'm ecstatic with the 20+ milers we've done, but almost can't wait to get back to regular mileage....specially since I won't be pulling the trailer against the wind anymore.

xeney, we started in the trailer at five months, when he could hold his head up with a helmet on. We started short til he built up strength (pretty quickly). Having pillows to sleep or rest on was a big plus for him.

My sister is a single working mom who is also going to school to become a nurse. She's now on the last of her 6 year schooling. How she does it mystifies me, but she does. Her kid is clean, well-behaved, confident and in the gifted program at her school. And with a near deadbeat dad as well. Amazing!
