I am sitting at the table next to Josh. He is doing his first grade homework and I am leafing through a magazine nearby being available to assist if necessary. Josh is working on spelling. The next word he has to write a sentence for is CRIB. He turns to me and says "I can't think of anything to say for crib because I don't know what a crib is." I kiss my co-slept baby. I am tempted to find an episode of MTV Cribs tell him it is the code name for someone young movie or television star's swanky pimped out digs, but instead I hop onto the computer and pull up some crib catalog page. Josh is still stumped! He hasn't ever seen one! Wait until he finds out that some people put nets on top so their older kids can't get out.
LOLOLOLOL. Thanks for making me smile. You totally cheered me up tonight after a challenging day of well, living. Thanks :)

The boy I watch has had a net on top since he was about 9 months old - escape artist!
