A Room Of Her Own And Cheese
We had a lot of goofy hippy ideas about how much our children would love having a shared nursery room - ala A Pattern Language - oh, the security they would feel! The cheerful kinship! They would go to bed singing "Kumbaya" and arise singing "Good Morning Starshine." Um, no? The … [Read more...]
