Blue, U R a very good person and Newsvine is a better place because of you. My wife and I have a 28 month old daughter (our first, tough I am 48 and my wife 40). We celebrate life through our little girl and she amazes us every day. She makes me remember why political discussion is important -- it's part of the world she will inherit. Hoping you are enjoying your motherly moments as much as I my Daddyisms. Bless you!
