Career Milestones

Did you think this was going to be about a publishing deal, hitting a bestseller list or finishing my 20th book??

Heck, no. Here's my career milestone today, and it's a doozy:


Note how there are TWO children wearing backpacks and waiting for the morning bus?

TWO TWO TWO TWO! Let's just say I skipped the "Kindergarten Parents' Boo-hoo Breakfast" at the school for fear my gleeful attitude might offend the other mommies.

Time to kick things up a notch, career. Punt me some deadlines! Well, barring any demands the new addition to my extended family might make, now officially known as Niece1. I wanted to call her Kid3, since I feel pretty possessive of her, but NannySlave is the one walking the floor with her at night, not me, so I have to call her Niece1.

As for the cats who live with Niece1, always an important factor on this blog, so far they are the only ones putting the crib to any use. Niece1 prefers to sleep on her parents or her favorite person in the world (Aunt Jody).

Sincerely,

JW

PS Yes, I will now be updating www.Meankitty.com  with more regularity. In fact, I have already done it today! I would be encouraged to further heights of reliability and entertainment by more comments, I suspect :)

Congratulations on the event and the perfect picture. :-) But don't worry, the cats will make sure you stay humble. ;-)
