Everything's changing

I think today is my last day with Sami. That makes me so unbelievably depressed. How am I going to survive in Davis without getting to play with her? I've been her only babysitter for over a year now, and she's my favorite kid ever. Nobody else is going to understand her like I do. No one else is going to be able to sing all her favorite songs

How do you stay in touch with a two year old?

If you both have webcams (not horribly expensive) you could use Skype w/ Festoon or iChatAV or something.

I know what you mean about censoring yourself. I started this stupid thing explicitly to release my demons in some kind of safe and anonymous way, but it doesn't take long before you realize it isn't so anonymous and some inner demons just don't play nicely with others no matter what sandbox you try to put them in.

hey, remember me? I met you through the tallchicksrock community. Anyway, I keep in touch with my little sister, who's 6, by sending her free e-cards to my mom's email address, and then she picks some out with my mom to send back to me. I know the mentality of a 2 year old and 6 year old are way different, but it still might be helpful. You can also attach pictures of yourself on some of the cards for free and that might help her too looking at the picture. :)

Well... if the people can't handle what you blogged and un-friend you, so what? this should be a relatively free place to express yourself (of course, with the awareness that it's also a fairly public forum, even f-locked posts).

I understand you missing Sami, but most people have childhood amnesia where it's very difficult to remember anything before 6 (I believe it has to do with the constant growing and pruning of neuronal connections during that age.) Short-term contact would probably cool, but in the long-run it may come off as a bit freaky.
