		<description><![CDATA[On our last day of our 4th of July staycation, the whole extended family went out to McDonald&#8217;s for breakfast.  We chose this for two reasons: We&#8217;d eaten all the eggs and didn&#8217;t have anything prepared for that morning, and It had been raining constantly for the last 24 hours and we wanted to get [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We recently picked up a new toy, pictured at right.  When Robin got her new phone, with the built-in flash video camera feature, we found ourselves taking quite a bit more video.  It&#8217;s very convenient to just pull it out and start filming, and it&#8217;s very easy to get the resultant video out into a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve already written about Katherine&#8217;s reaction to having her four lower teeth extracted (&#8220;I want glue teeth&#8220;).  Lately she&#8217;s been a bit more OCD than usual &#8212; it comes and goes, but at the moment she really wants cupboard doors closed and pots centered on their trivets, etc. Robin was privileged to see the newest [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Katherine has been doing very well verbally lately since Christmas break.  Whether the cause is the reduction in stress from not having school for three weeks or just the increased time at home with people who (mostly) understand her, she is doing substantially more spontaneous commenting and complex requesting.  Rather than just fall back on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve written quite a bit about Thomas in the past, but you haven&#8217;t heard me write much about my daughter Katherine, except in passing.  There&#8217;s a reason for that.  One of the main reasons I stopped writing this blog several years ago, in fact, was because Katherine was diagnosed with autism in March 2006.
