Deanna Lynn Greer (37) and John David Cain (26) were the sellers. The price they asked was $3000. I expect legally adopting a baby costs a lot more than that. Poor baby. :(

Is it only specific children who have specific parents that are worthy of concern/attention/care? Can a heart be so sharply compartmentalized? Ivanka emphasized that she was a mother when she sales pitched for daddy dearest. As if that were important. As if children mattered. Whose children matter and why? Sad that all children don't matter isn't it? :( less

"What are you talking about? I cut it." And he grinned at me and said, "Aren't I entitled to sick pay?" (And before you ask, yes, I gave it to him. Chutzpah should be encouraged.)What have your kids done to you?

Reminded me of my early childhood, back in the 1930s, when I used to think that passing trucks were bogeymen. Do you have any night memories from your early childhood? What about things that disturbed your own children?
