		<title>Elise&#8217;s Park Story</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Petie and I had separate errands to run yesterday.  Joelle and Elise chose to split up (which is unusual).  As Elise and I were on our way to the MAC, we passed a park.
Elise: &#8220;Hey, there&#8217;s a park.&#8221;
Me: &#8220;Hopefully soon it will get cool again and we can go to the park every [...]]]></description>

		<title>Purse Snatcher &#8211; Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The options ran through our heads &#8211; we wanted the kids to see the tour and I really didn&#8217;t want Petie to miss it so I could either just hang around with her purse or&#8230;.the numbers clicked.  It had taken us 15 minutes to get there and we had (a little less than) 30 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Purse Snatcher &#8211; Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things we wanted to do while in Denver this summer was to visit the U.S. Mint.  Petie fondly recalls her trip to the Bureau of Engraving in Washington, D.C. and thought that the girls would enjoy it.
Who knew how popular these tours were? A month in advance most of the tours [...]]]></description>

		<title>What to do when the tooth fairy forgot</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A situation many parents dread &#8211; your child wakes you up in the morning or emerges from her room distraught.  &#8220;The tooth fairy didn&#8217;t come last night!&#8221;  Uh oh.
There is a solution &#8211; Petie was over at a friend&#8217;s house last week when their daughter came out and said &#8220;the tooth fairy didn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>4th of July!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[OK, Petie pulls out this Family Fun magazine (June/July 2010 issue).  I can&#8217;t believe this picture is for real.

The caption should definitely just be &#8220;WUT?&#8221;
And yes, there actually is a project to make this &#8211; called &#8220;Wig and Tutu in One&#8221;.

		<title>She&#8217;s Listening&#8230;.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Up until recently, we were more likely to be able to fool Elise even if it meant changing what we had said before.  Now she&#8217;s old enough to remember what we said and hold it against us &#8211; something that will be great for her and horrible for us when she&#8217;s a teenager.
For now, though, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christmas Secret</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Petie showed Joelle a present she was getting me for Christmas, saying &#8220;Joelle, you can keep a scecret right?&#8221;
Joelle: &#8220;I can keep a secret, you trust me don&#8217;t you? I Think it&#8217;s THIS one (pointing at Elise) you have to worry about, mom.&#8221;

		<title>Sleeping in</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Usually on the weekends the girls both wake up around 7:00 or so.  Joelle goes into the playroom and plays quietly.  Elise, on the other hand, usually stumbles into our bedroom and whines (as if we woke her up) &#8220;I wanna watch tv, wanna sausage patty, want my choca milk&#8221;.  If you don&#8217;t have everything [...]]]></description>

		<title>No Title&#8230;at least I finally wrote a story&#8230;  :)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As parents, we are constantly seeing ourselves in our children.  Often, I think Elise is more like Chris, but bringing out all the Christmas hoopla yesterday made me realize that really, children are bits and pieces of both parents and then they have a little dash of their own spice to boot.  I say this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lunch visits</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Joelle got her first lunch visit of the year from Petie and Elise.  Petie said it was cute because 1st grade lunch is between K and Pre-K lunchtimes so you get to see all the little kids come in.  I also learned that once you get to first grade you don&#8217;t have to sit with [...]]]></description>
