Duncan destroys Pmom
(This photo of Duncan is not recent, but it captures something that seemed relevant).

Pdad was out of town again. . .

Single parenting is not for wimps.

    I’m lucky that Michael doesn’t go out of town very often. Next time Pdad is gone you’ll have to have them come over for a bit so you can have a break.

    Which of those does PDad normally cover?

    Oh, how true! Most of Nathan’s weeks out aren’t too bad, but some of them? I barely make it to the end. I’m glad you’re all reunited!

    This is an _old_ picture. But a great one.

    Don’t know how you do it. You’re a strong woman. I remember hanging on until T. came in the door at 6:00 or 6:30, so grateful to see him.
