[C] Teach Our Children Well

I figured that my very first foray into the blogosphere should be about something weighty and important. Opining about the historic election right around the corner, or about the disastrous state of the global economy, threats to the environment - these seemed topics appropriate to the occasion. But in the freakish myopia that stay-at-home-motherhood can be, somehow diapers and feeding and bathing take on fateful significance all their own. As do playing and learning and laughing and growing... and come to think of it, what really is more meaningful than how we raise and shape our children? I find myself wondering how our toddlers will be when they are kids, then teenagers, then adults. What amazes me is how quickly that will happen, if the past twenty years are any indication. That's how long the four of us have been friends. In less time than we have known each other our little ones will be meeting the people who will become *their* A+ Productions. May they all be as lucky.
