BTW, I didn't respond to your critiques in thread, though they were excellent and I edited my draft because of them, because I am posting a related story - a kind of prequel relating to Cadmus, and didn't want it to look like I was flooding the thread.

Your editing is a writer's dream! I thought there might be less egg-laying in winter. I can't remember, it has been so long since I raised them. How is it different?

Thank you for the friend request. I really thought we already were or else I'd have asked you much sooner. x

Has anyone told you the little girl in your picture looks like a runway model?

She is 20 months. She is a great and worrisome climber. She can barely operate doors, and hasn't locked herself in anywhere yet, thank heaven! Mos tof the cabinets have safety catches now, but she loves to pull out pots and pans and phone books.

I love nutella! sophia hasn't yet developed a taste for it, though.

my german is pretty poor, I got help from my husband who is a duel german-American citizen. My daughter is too, but the only german she knows is "nein" (no) and "choco" (chocolate). Although it may take a while, we are saving up to buy a small flat in germany so we can live there 3 months a year.

Clearly your #1 son takes after his mom!

Hi you! Hope all is well!

Hey back atcha!
