		<description><![CDATA[A colleague and his wife are &#8220;expecting&#8221; and like many parents-to-be are in a quandary over choosing a name for the new addition to their family. Their difficulty in choosing a name reminded me of choosing a name for my daughter.
My dilemma started the first time I was pregnant. It happened that a close friend [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The day had been humid, hot, and long. Warm skin tingled in the grasp of the cool night air. A million stars beckoned to my imagination. All senses acutely alive, I listened for the sounds of the night and heard the laughter of neighborhood youngsters; voices kindred to those of my children so many years [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ As I sit here tonight and watch the new star that I have found in the heavens, memories collide and I am reminded of a sweaty little palm that held tightly onto my hand, a palm that, too quickly, slipped from my grasp.
That star probably isn&#8217;t really a new star, but I am sure [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A comment by a reader of Blogging for Bitter Women  made me remember the day I wanted to do cartwheels in the parking lot. The reader (another Linda!) commented that if she had superpowers one of them would be to cartwheel down the street. I&#8217;m with her.  In fact there was one day when [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spare the Rod&#8230;
I was brought up to believe that if you spare the rod, you’ll spoil the child. It was an on-going, hands-on lesson and when I became a young adult,  I was firmly against hitting my children… right up until the time my first child was born. After a difficult labor, my doctor [...]]]></description>
