I love his smile!

I will often take so many pictures that some get overlooked! Since it's so cold and I can't go outside and shoot my camera I thought I would catch up on some older pics. I fell in love with Collin's smile in this one.

My mom (hi mom) will often call me to tell me the goings on in the world. She remembers the girl shopping while the OJ chase was going on. She could not believe I knew nothing about it! I am still that way today, and rarely catch the news. However, since having kids I admit to being a tad bit more involved. The problem I have and I am sure this is the general consensus is that the world can be a sad place. So, while my ignorance keeps me happy it does not stop all the bad that exists in the world. So she calls me when there is something too scary to ignore. I don't just take the information in, instead I dwell on it and worry beyond what is normal. This morning she calls to tell me about MRSA and how it's on the rise.

What the heck, one more thing to worry about! Collin is particularly susceptible to picking up illness, for some unknown reason! Do I need to home school my children? Or am I just being paranoid.

To prevent this highly contagious infection, they say "hygiene" is important. Don't share towels, wash your hands and keep open wounds clean and covered.

Just thought I would share the information, not to freak anyone out, but there have been 5 cases of this in Washington! So, knowledge is power...thanks mom! I think!
