We took the lil’ monkey for her first dental visit this week. I know, I know. We could have taken her earlier — should have taken her earlier. The American Dental Association recommends they come in as soon as the first teeth appear, and no later than the first year.
Yep. [...]

She’ll be off book for the entire Amahl part in another day or two. All the other parts, she still has some holes. I do think she’ll be ready to work as a prompter for the show for the upcoming season, should anyone produce it locally. ‘Course there are those pesky child [...]

I've weeded a coupla dozen posts, and continue to do more when I have time, but please be patient 'til I git the mechanic to git the rest of it outta here. Shouldn't be too long.
