		<title>Box Training</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My partner and I recently took our two-year-old daughter (MissMunchkin) to the playground. While there, my partner and I stepped back for a moment and really observed what was happening.




Now, &#8216;Tot Lot&#8217; has the guideline of children up to four, while the &#8216;Big Kids&#8217; area is 5-14. I don&#8217;t like a lot of rules; they [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s In A Word?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently when talking or writing about my &#8220;husband&#8221; I&#8217;ve started to refer to him as my partner instead of husband. I&#8217;d like to take a moment to explain why.




(Warning: Mild ranting ahead.)Whenever the subjects of gay rights and/or gay marriage come up in politics, I tend to end up getting perturbed at the very least. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Coloring On The Walls</title>
		<description><![CDATA[MissMunchkin (my 22mo) got a set of bath crayons this week. She&#8217;s had great fun coloring on the bathtub walls. They wipe right off, as long as you do so that night, after that they still come off, they just take a (little) bit more work.




I was taking my evening bath, looking at my now [...]]]></description>

Some friends have sent this video my way and asked that I send it along to someone that might not have thought about the topic. I kindly ask you to do the same. Thanks!
As always, a shout out to those who question the box they&#8217;ve been put in and bravely find their own way.

		<title>Here we go&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I think this is going to work now. We&#8217;ll see.
I switch servers and am now using WordPress. After a few hiccups (which still make no sense), everything seems to be working again.
Except for the feed. I&#8217;m still trying to figure out how to work that&#8230;
Stay tuned.
 Update: The feed is found. Things in front of your face [...]]]></description>

		<title>Uh, birth control please?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It was 11pm, my partner and I were at Wal-Mart with one very awake Miss Munchkin in tow. I don&#8217;t like shopping at Wal-Mart, but it was the only store still open and we needed groceries. It had turned into one of those days.
First on the list? Condoms. Why? Because we&#8217;re responsible adults.
When we first arrived [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sanctuary</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
My home is not my castle. It is my sanctuary. It is my little safe place tucked away from everybody else. It is my natural habitat.
I don&#8217;t mind venturing out into the world. In fact I (usually) quite enjoy it. But after just so long I get overloaded, tired, and cranky. Even doing something I [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Rebel Cause</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
If you don&#8217;t live in the South you probably aren&#8217;t aware how alive and well the American Civil War still is. It&#8217;s hard to believe that almost 150 years later Southerners are still flying Confederate Flags and complaining about Yankees and Damn Yankees. (Yes, there is a difference between the two.) They seem oblivious at [...]]]></description>

		<title>What Is The Box?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The Box to me is anything anyone follows blindly without question.
For example: I was in public school through fifth grade. Public school was a Box for me and my parents. It was never questioned; I was of school age so I went to school. That&#8217;s just what happens. Right?
Why? Was I learning things in school [...]]]></description>
