mercurial twos

First, check out this incredible essay "The Perversity of Diversity" by LaShawn Barber.  She's one of my favorite bloggers.

I know I haven't posted in a while - no doubt all three of my faithful readers (hi, Mom!) have been wondering what happened to me.

Well, let's see. I've been working, trying to encourage my son eat something besides sliced bread, trying to get my husband to mow the lawn, procrastinating doing the laundry, trying to find clean underwear, going to church, planning Drew's second birthday party, watching (and getting hooked on) Hell's Kitchen (Chef Ramsay can light my fire any day...oh, doh, now my husband's gonna stop watching it with me), trying to find a new swimsuit that doesn't suck and attempting to find recipes for the 40 pounds of zucchini I now have in my freezer.

That's pretty much it.

One day, Drew loves me and can't get enough of me. The next day, he's indifferent. The next day, he actively dislikes my presence. The next, he doesn't want me to leave his side.  The next, he's not so keen on me but has decided Dad is king of all.

This, I am assured, is perfectly normal behavior for an almost-two-year-old.

I say, my almost-two-year-old and a paranoid schizophrenic have a lot in common.
