I feel lucky that he and I share this now. It's very possible that he'll change his mind about writing professionally (esp. when he realizes what a crazy occupation it really is!), but it's been so exciting to see him gain confidence in his creativity and have fun playing with story ideas. Hope you have a great holiday, too!! Erika, thank you!! I feel lucky that he and I share this now.

Your son is lucky to have you as a mom. And it sounds like you're lucky to have him as a son. When my son was young, I started painting. I wasn't that good at it, and I'm surprised and kind of honored when I go to friends' houses and see my stuff on their walls. Marilyn, I love this blog. Your son is lucky to have you as a mom.

And mega thank-you greatly for the congrats on my sale to Pocket! Let's see...I guess there's really nothing better Santa could bring me . . . well, wait . . . maybe a desire to clean. Yes. That's it. I would like an internally-generated desire to--and love of-cleaning. ;-) Hey Pamela~
