Chad and I have a theory that Eden’s fear of loud noises began about 7 weeks ago when her little brother joined the family. Ever since then she has been particularly sensitive to noise. Perhaps it is because she saw a bunch of loud fireworks right at the time her life turned inside out and upside down. It is just a theory.
Eden is very cognizant of sounds: sirens, trains, planes, helicopters, thunder, the AC unit, the vacuum, and just about anything that makes noise. She says “It’s loud!”
Today while at the hardware store we passed by some Halloween decorations. She recognized a witch from her Each Peach Pear Plum book and then we walked to the next isle. There was a full size skeleton that opened its mouth and said bwahahaha!. Eden lost it. She started to scream and cry and was so terrified. “It’s loud!” We immediately turned around and went back the way we came. This time the Witch let out a cackle. Add insult to injury. The poor girl was so completely frightened that I couldn’t help but get choked up myself. It was awful. She has been talking about the scary witch all evening. Hopefully she doesn’t have nightmares because I will be so heartbroken to see her scared and have so little ability to help!

This is sort of a late answer, but on the 4th where i live, there are always parades in the morning/afternoon and then alot of people have parties/family gatherings. Then at night, there are really pretty firework displays.
Le cycliste brûle les feux rouge ! Ah bon !En face du lycée de ma ville, c’est par centaines que les voitures brûlent les feux rouge chaque jour. Ils ont tué 3 lycéens en 10 ans. Il n’y a pas 10 cyclistes qui brûlent les feux à cet endroit. Trop dangereux. Les brûler à des carrefours dégagés, peut-être, je le fais moi-même comme des milliers de piétons. Je ne connais pas encore de décès provoqué par un cycliste sur un piéton.
Asså va? Vad pratar du om? Köpa lägenhet i Stockholm är jättelätt bara du har pengar. De allra flesta lägenheter tillsalu hittar du på hemnet!Du menar nog att det är svårt att HYRA en lägenhet i Sthlm, det är jättelånga kötider (20-30 år) för att få ett förstahandskontrakt i innerstan.
J’ai exactement la même impression. L’article part d’une thèse péremptoire : « les Us c’est bien, la vieille Europe, c’est pas bien » et apres on donne des exemples vaseux pour parfaire le tableau.
These are great tips. Annabelle is going in for her 4 month next week and that makes me nervous, imagine what a wreck i’ll be at 18 months if she throws a tantrum :-/ All part of growing pains for me in my journey as a mom… oh yeah and for Annabelle too
Spekulation. Weshalb sollte JB in den USA verfolgt werden? Sie würde die israelische Staatsbürgerschaft nur deshalb fordern, um zu provozieren. Mit an Sicherheit grenzender Wahrscheinlichkeit wird sie ihr verwehrt werden, incl. Einreise.Sie ist nicht die einzige Person jüdischen Galubens, die Israel nicht betreten darf. Auch in Deutschland gibt es solche Juden, manche waren/sind sogar Mitglieder des Zentralrates der Juden.
ah just read the full interview.this guy is so talented……he is a micro-manager…he looks at every aspect with detail. He is simply a perfectionist. I wish they had asked him which film he is doing next….
Thank you ladies, for your wonderful sharing and encouragement… indeed parenting is not easy but to be there for our children when they are still young to instill values and train good habits is what we have been tasked to do as parents.. while the journey is tough, I believe the process will shape us to be wiser as we go along too 🙂

I agree with esther and marcella about Riis’ impactful photos. Please note, however, that the ‘sleeping chilren’ photo is believed to have been staged by Riis. It doesn’t take anything away from his cause, but does open an interesting comment about the power and manilpulation of photography in journalism.
