		<title>Should babies have their own seat on planes?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over at Parenting.com, Alina is wondering if parents should be required to buy seats for their babies on airplanes. My thoughts: I don&#8217;t know if it should be a law, but I wish more parents did it. We not only buy a seat for our little guy, but we schlep the car seat on board, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Labor Day weekend and given how hectic life has been for the past 10 days, I&#8217;m really looking forward to the leisure of sitting on my butt as much as I&#8217;d like for next three! I didn&#8217;t need to travel to an amusement park to experience a rollercoaster&#8230; but I&#8217;m sure glad I did! [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jake, now 3 years old, loves to hook up whatever toy vehicle he can to the rear axle on his tricycle and pedal around (a skill he has just recently caught on to) exclaiming, &#8220;Look!

		<title>Recovery begins&#8230; NOW</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Bailey had a relatively easy surgical experience yesterday. No complications. She had a full, deep general (the procedure to get the fractured bone set was apparently a rather rough one &#8211; the ortho had to angle her arm in different directions to finagle it all back into the proper position &#8211; I was amazed to [...]]]></description>

		<title>The girl is breakable</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The call every mother dreads&#8230; Bailey took a tumble from her horse today and broke her left shoulder (proximal humerus fracture). Mercifully, she&#8217;s right handed. It&#8217;s a pretty major fracture &#8211; bones are broken and all out of kilter. The doctor said without surgery, she might regain 50% range of motion at best, so&#8230; surgery [...]]]></description>
