A love note...

I was thinking about being a parent today.  It is such a crap shoot, giving birth to a human being.  You start out with a few cells, and before you know it, there is a whole person eating lemon meringue pie (um... what??) and telling you their opinion, and it may not exactly gel with your own, which is all a bit... disconcerting, to say the least.  I am always surprised when one of my offspring spouts off with an opinion in direct conflict with one of my long held beliefs.  (And it happens a lot, let me tell you.  I have one who will disagree just for the fun of debating the topic, so I know what I'm talking about here.)
