Well, her favorite color IS pink…

… I think we’d all just rather that adjective was not applied to her eyes.
Both of them.
She’s good at taking eye drops, though.
Thankfully she got a copy of How The Grinch Stole Christmas for Hanukkah (oh, the irony) so that will buy us 90 or so minutes of quiet working time tomorrow. And then the [...]
It’s a rollercoaster…

Wednesday when I picked S up at after-school, she looked kind of glazed and her cheeks were VERY rosy. One look at her and I knew she had a fever. (This was not entirely unexpected, as M has been battling a very tenacious virus since Thanksgiving – in his case it has decided to turn [...]

Yesterday at dinner Shoshanna was merrily telling us about going to the school library and checking out a book (Ezra Jack Keats’ The Trip, for those playing along at home) when suddenly, her face fell. She completely crumbled. As enormous tears started rolling, she managed to choke out, “I forgot to get it scanned!”
We attempted [...]
2 months ago she wouldn’t read us ANY books…

Redefining “OK”

November is prematurity awareness month, and November 17th is Unite: Fight for Preemies.
On November 17th, 2004, Shoshanna should have been seven weeks from being born; instead, she was 23 days old. She was pushing three pounds, and, according to what I wrote at the time, starting to put on enough chub that sometimes she actually [...]

On our way home now.

Shoshanna was a champ for her upper endoscopy today. We got to the hospital at 10 and went through all the history, etc. With shoes and abi, she weighs 20.2 kilos (44.4 pounds) and is 43″ tall. Her runny nose is just that – a [...]
And we wonder why she has such an ego…

Shoshanna has been seeing her new school physical therapist for a couple of weeks now. I had the opportunity to chat with her on the phone last week. During that conversation she informed me,
If I had to build a kid, it would be Shoshanna from the ground up.
Now, let’s leave aside the fact that she [...]
Coming this Thursday to a Shoshanna near you…

… an upper GI endoscopy with tissue biopsy. I don’t think I mentioned it, but we concluded in early September that the Dread Pirate Reflux was back in full force.
Honestly, I’m not sure it ever really went away this time. We took her off of meds in March and, to be honest, she had a [...]
Birthday Party and Halloween!

As I think I mentioned before, we postponed Shoshanna’s birthday party – the third week of school at a new school was just too crazy to contemplate. She desperately wanted to have it at the bounce place so we booked it for today, not because of Halloween, but just because it was the most convenient [...]

Lots of things to report, most of them school-related.
