Yes... he's brilliant

We've been enjoying Seattle, the sunshine bright and warming our skin each day. We wake up in the morning and walk to the local bakery, saying hello to the nice ladies behind the counter. A young couple stood in line behind us this morning with their 9 month old. Cash was smiling and laughing at everyone. Gleeful in a way I've never seen him before. He picked up his tiny hand and started to wave at the little boy. The parents saying, "Wow, he waves?!? He's so happy! What an amazing little boy! So bright! Our son isn't quite there yet." Did I say, "Oh no. This is the very first time he's ever waved"? Did I say, "He's usually a grumpy pants in the morning"? Nah. I smiled and pretended he's always like that. Great. I've turned ino the one of the mothers I hate.

I have just recently come across your blog & I love reading it. I don't have children but I do love your posts about your son. Today I decided to read a little further back and found your posts from 2008 about your job hunting and although I'm not in that situation at the moment, the rest of it sounds so familiar! I love your sense of humour & if you ever published a book, I'd be first in line to purchase it (just let me save up first!)

Missywhiskers - Thanks so much! Fortunately I found a job in 2008 so I'm in a much better mood now. : )
