Meredith, sometimes I have the feeling of "remembering" something in advance...does that ever happen to you? It isn't de ja vu but something like it...like having a dream about ordinary every day events in a particular combination, and then sometime later in "real life" just noticing that the particular combination of events has occurred...

I knew that my last baby was somehow connected with my parents' last days... and she was in the room when my father departed this life. As a one year old, no one tried to explain the event to her, but later looking at his photo she said "All gone now."

This probably doesn't belong in this section but here is a cute quote from my daughter:

"Will you tie my rainbow?" (tie the sash on her dress)
