Well, I did, but I just thought, my what a politically and/or grammatically correct child. ANd it is often very difficult to ascertain sex at that age, you know!

I wish that I had an intellectual, socially aware story to tell about one of my kids.
We took CW to Fantasia when he was 2 1/2. I thought it would be a good introduction to classical music. We kept stuffing popcorn down him to shut him up when he got restless. When it was over, he said, "Carry me, Daddy," and when Dan picked him up, CW barfed all over the seat and Dan and the floor. He missed me. I was pretending to look for my pocketbook.

I don't think that's going to qualify him or us for any awards.

I noticed the him/her, asap, and thought it must be YOU. Because I thot, that can't be the little kid. (Angus.) I mean, I disregarded it, even tho that's what I thot you meant. Because it's too funny, and too unusual.

But as him, it's fall down.

You sailed one over us.

Remember, talk down.

To yer audience.

Being always irritated by Newspeak I caught the "him or her".
The poor waif, ruint while still a toddler, his little brain polluted by PC-thought.
Don't let Tinky-Winky near him.
