		<description><![CDATA[We are fortunate to have a rich supply of college-age babysitters in our neighborhood (thanks to North Park University) &#8212; but most candidates we don&#8217;t know personally, so we have needed a reliable way to select and screen good childcare providers. Here&#8217;s the straightforward system we&#8217;ve come up with. A couple years ago, my friend [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rosie and I have a new trick for finding interesting children&#8217;s books, and it is helping us discover some real gems. We are lucky enough to live two blocks away from our local branch of the Chicago Public Library. Most days, after dropping Lucy off at preschool, we swing by &#8212; either to pick up [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Even a simple peanut-butter lunch around here can be emotionally intense, at least for Mama. I really enjoy knowing what kinds of sandwich Lucy and Rosie like. I love it that they are different, and I love knowing their specific preferences. Lucy likes creamy peanut butter with honey, crusts cut off. (But don&#8217;t section the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We check out a lot of books from the library. (I actually maxed-out my card the other day!) Since we find some gems along the way, I&#8217;m going to try my hand at some quick-take children&#8217;s book reviews. Here we go!

		<description><![CDATA[Who wants to read a beautiful book that shines with good humor, gentle creatures, exciting discoveries, and terrible beauties? You want the Moomintroll books. The Finnish author Tove Jansson (who wrote in Swedish) produced a series of books and of comics and other whimsies from the 1930s through the &#8217;70s, and I&#8217;m not sure which [...]]]></description>

I knew there must be more out there, and I just found another. Lucy and I just discovered The Golden Book of 365 Stories by Kathryn Jackson and Richard Scarry.

But what&#8217;ll really blow your mind is Petit&#8217;s own first-person account of the entire operation. I hope you have seen the Academy Award-winning documentary, Man on Wire, [...]]]></description>

Lately, as I&#8217;ve been working through some of these jewels in my &#8220;to-read&#8221; stack, I&#8217;m focusing on a new character: the mother. There are all kinds of mothers featured in children&#8217;s books: some are clueless, some evil, some absent. I&#8217;m especially [...]]]></description>
