So, for my class I am getting everyone to create a 'virtual child'. My virtual child's name is Michael. There are enough Michael Angileris out there, but I like the name anyway. I tried to get a girl, but figures, couldn't even get a 'cyber' girl. The first part asks personality questions, then you choose your child's features and 'voila!' you have a baby (if only it was that easy). Then you have to choose different decisions (ex. will you breast feed or formula feed, will you choose home day care or child care, will you play more or sing more to your child). I tried to choose what I already have with my own, but (like reality) I was making 'virtual' parenting choices when I was overly tired. At my 'virtual'l 9 month baby check my baby was getting intestinal problems and was a little behind in gross/fine motor skills! Wait! Did did I choose singing over active play with my baby....is it because I was supplementing with formula?? ....take it back!! Here I am getting defensive and wanting to start over with my 'virtual' child.
Back to reality....tomorrow I think I will take the kids to Curran's apple orchard. I have 4 tomorrow.

Just like a real child -- you wish you could turn back the clock and do things just a little differently! (I do sometimes anyway!) :) Sounds like an interesting project!
Hope all is well you with you and the family -- give Joe my love!
