While supervising Bradie at Lundeen Park, I heard a barely four-year-old use the "F" word twice. He was going to use it a third but I cut him off with an abrupt "Eeeeexcuse me?" Same park, a little while later, a young man observed my daughter as we walked by to our car. In a sort of accent he proclaimed that Bradie was going to be a ganster. As he pimplimped away I didn't have the courage or energy to tell him that he was indeed a white boy.
All that aside, Lake Stevens possesses some of my favorite old friends and a darn good teryaki place called Midori. It also has a Target and some other treasures I am sure. Sarcastic complaining closed.
Good night.
Oh and for those who might care I am now immersed in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Late I know, but that Rowling woman is BRILLIANT!

Sara you crack me up! But a 4 year old droppin' the "F" bomb is no laughing matter. Bradie may need to learn herself some earmuffs...Homey. Ü
Wait, did I spell Homey wrong??
Sara my family (all 8 kids) survived that kind of neighborhood atmoshpere growing up. I suggest you pray that Bradie would have ears that reject some of the things she'll be hearing and eyes that don't remember things she might see...
God is bigger than your neigborhood...
And besides, Bradie is way to pretty for FUBU and pants that sit below her butt...
