Last night was Daughter#2's graduation from elementary school.
The highlight of the school's festivities was a grade-school version of Aristophane's play "The Birds (Ornithes)" which was applauded with enthusiasm and a variety of songs and dances presented by all 6th graders.
I looked at those kids on stage and over at Daughter#1 (aged 17, finishing high-school) hugging her first-grade teacher and wondered how fast time has gone by. It seemed like only yesterday I was combing pigtails and packing lunches for my girls and I didn't have to squeeze between the two of them, in front of the bathroom mirror, to comb my hair.

- Half of the day they call me "Athena" where I get paid to dabble with computers. The other half of the day I'm called "Mom", but I also have an online secret identity. I am bilingual, so what might look like Greek to you, probably is. I blog because it's cheaper than therapy and I like to make people laugh.
