What's up Doc??!!!
It's become evident that few people can go to the doctor for a simple, even non-clinical requirement and come back without feeling like they were modern-day Frankenstein's monsters or something to that extent.

The Hard&Soft of it all...

To Ferberize or Not to Ferberize..
There's no question..Ferberize..!!
When my son was quite a bit younger and Red and I were still patrolling our room like night watchmen, we were advised to Ferberize him and Ferberize him good!
It was less to do with my being maternal and more to do with a child who didn't understand much of what was going on around him and his two main supports ( Read more... ) -

The Genesis of Coffee in my life
Just got to sit down with a cuppa. The FIL and the offspring are watching something Hindi on t.v. I know the t.v.'s on because my son's occasionally clapping during the ads and because he doesn't need me right now ( Read more... )
