		<title>Father Daughter Dance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every year, the primary school holds a father daughter spring dance.  Usually it starts in 1st grade, but the youngers in the K/1 class are also invited.
It sounds like everyone had a good time, though from the video snippets that Denis took it really looks like the girls were all doing line dances while the [...]]]></description>

		<title>22 Months Old!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Anna,
Today you are 22 months old.  Two more months before you turn two &#8211; and the time is just flying by.  I think I&#8217;d better start planning your birthday party soon!

This month I&#8217;ve been astounded by the things you&#8217;ve started doing.  All of a sudden you&#8217;re counting&#8230;all the way up to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Baby Roses</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Inspired by a bouquet of baby socks Lisa made for me for my baby shower before Carrie was born, I made washcloth roses for a friend&#8217;s &#8220;sprinkle&#8221; shower this morning.  I used these instructions, except I didn&#8217;t have any silk flowers to behead and use as stems, so I used some takeout chopsticks and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mother&#8217;s Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We woke up to snow (!) and some minor tree damage from the wind storm last night, and decided to ignore the downed limbs and head to Ithaca as planned.
Anna is finally old enough that I don&#8217;t have to be shadowing her every second in other people&#8217;s houses, and Denis took over most of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dance Observation Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We had our second dance observation of the year tonight.  I&#8217;m really impressed with how much Carrie has learned over this year, and I think it&#8217;s amazing how her teacher has managed to take a dozen or so girls in the 4-7 year old range and teach them so much.

I&#8217;m so much happier with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dandelions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I know they&#8217;re weeds, but they really can be pretty!  And besides, with these in the yarn to pick, the girls totally leave the &#8220;real&#8221; flowers in the garden beds alone&#8230;

		<title>Ice Cream Cuties</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We went out for ice cream tonight after dinner.  Anna got vanilla with rainbow sprinkles, and Carrie got orange blossom&#8230;also with rainbow sprinkles.  The important bit, of course, is rainbow sprinkles.

		<title>Spring Snowstorm</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I woke up this morning and looked out the window, I thought, &#8220;gosh, that looks like awfully solid rain&#8230;&#8221;
So, I am not, after all, a lazy gardener for not cleaning out my beds and putting in annuals yet.  I&#8217;m just psychic!

		<title>5.5 Years Old!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear Carolyn,
Today you are halfway between 5 and 6.  I am not going to kid you.  It&#8217;s been a challenging few months for both of us.  But first, the good stuff.

You are doing wonderfully well in school, as always.  While I always knew you were great at reading, you continually surprise [...]]]></description>

		<title>Earth Day Planting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[To make up for having to take down our trees, Carrie and I planted the beginnings of a garden today.  Beans, cucumbers, peppers and tomatoes, zinnias, marigolds and parsley.  Including the sunflower Carrie planted at the PTA&#8217;s Earth Day fair last week, we will have a lot of new growing things to take [...]]]></description>
