Three and a half? Is she really that old? It seems just the other day that she was a baby you'd be nursing to sleep while typing comments with one hand ....

It's scary how fast kids grow up.

In the hearts and minds of BB's fans, she is a million indeed - and more!

Aw. A child of hyperbole, after my own heart. Nice.
luckybuzz | Homepage | 01.10.08 - 2:21 pm | #

Like jo(e), I can hardly believe she's three and a half....but she's definitely worth a million!

Ah, the perspective of a child is a wonderful thing indeed. The Kraken informed me yesterday that Frosty the Snowman had two eyes made out of poop.

I'd say the time is ripe for teaching her about googolplexes, i.e., a "1, followed by writing zeros until you got tired."
Jane Dark | Homepage | 01.10.08 - 11:55 pm | #

At least a million, I'd say.

So that makes me ... hm... carry the one... oh, hell, just ancient. But I knew that.

T. is so taken with being four now that she says she can do anything at all that she wants to. Anything.

Isn't it amazing how big little kids think they are? So sweet and so innocent.
Liesl | Homepage | 01.19.08 - 5:34 pm | #

So big. Yesterday Baby E informed us that she is now an adult. I'll bet she and BB would get along great.

Come along now! What's going on at your end? Tenth of January! Even I've managed to catch up by now. Do we need to be concerned?

You're on my google reader now and I didn't see anything so I assumed I'd messed it up somehow. Now I pop along and what do I find? Nada [ that popular American term]

Phantom, your posts about your kids cute remarks always make me miss when mine was little. Sigh.
Jessica | Homepage | 01.29.08 - 8:46 pm | #

I miss you.
timna | Homepage | 02.01.08 - 2:41 pm | #

Everything OK out your way, Phantom? I miss your posts.
Liesl | Homepage | 02.04.08 - 7:07 am | #

Even though you haven't been posting much lately, I wanted to come here and wish you a happy blogiversary.

Three years!

I'm glad I met you ....
jo(e) | Homepage | 02.05.08 - 10:47 am | #

Yoohoo, Phantom...where are you? Are you just exhausted from chasing around that speedy BB? We miss you!
debangel | Homepage | 02.05.08 - 1:40 pm | #

Technically challenged person!

Pop on over and collect your award dearie!
Cheers
Maddy | Homepage | 02.09.08 - 1:10 pm | #

Phantom, this is a really long time for you to go without posting. Is everything okay? I see I'm not the only one worried, and I waited a while to post my concern, but I'm really starting to get worried now....
Suburban Gorgon | Homepage | 02.18.08 - 8:25 pm | #

I'm also hoping everything is OK with you, PS, and that you come back soon. I miss your words (and your great kid stories).
Mardougrrl | Homepage | 02.19.08 - 7:37 pm | #

10th January? I thought my google reader must be on the blink. Is everything o.k.?
Best wishes
Maddy | Homepage | 02.20.08 - 8:04 pm | #

Are you alright? I haven't visited in a while, and came back expecting lots of new reading material, except there wasn't any. The internet misses you.

Sending good thoughts your way...
Carissa | Homepage | 03.05.08 - 2:57 pm | #

Ok, just for old times, could someone who knows Phantom IRL please post that she has just stopped posting, and that nobody has been run over by a bus? Please?
Thanks.
Cranky Old Man | 03.15.08 - 9:30 pm | #

I'm a Phantom blog lurker and noticed that she hadn't posted in a very long time and that there was some worry. I don't know her IRL, but I just saw that she posted a comment at jo(e)'s blog today.
Hope you are doing okay and post again soon, Phantom.
Writer Chica | 03.24.08 - 1:56 pm | #

I'm worried about her, too . . . hope all is well.
Purple_Kangaroo | Homepage | 03.26.08 - 1:33 pm | #

I miss your wit and perspective, and hope you are doing really well.

She has not been run over by a truck.
JM | Homepage | 04.02.08 - 3:49 pm | #

Still stopping by...

Glad to hear there's been no truck/scribbler family interaction. Is it ominous that the bus question is still open?
moreena | Homepage | 04.08.08 - 11:44 am | #

No buses, Moreena. No vehicles of any kind.
Genevieve | 04.09.08 - 2:58 pm | #

No, that was just a certain someone (me) not actually looking at what I quoted. My bad.
JM | Homepage | 04.09.08 - 4:53 pm | #

bad news: miss your posts
good news: i am no longer the least frequent poster in the blogosphere

hope all is well
A | Homepage | 04.13.08 - 10:24 am | #

I still check here hopefully from time to time, too.

I did have a dream a few weeks ago where I came here and all it said was GONE. I was sad.
Rev. Dr. Mom | Homepage | 04.15.08 - 9:20 am | #

Missing you a lot, PS. Thinking about you often. Take good care of yourself.
Laura Carroll | Homepage | 04.23.08 - 12:16 am | #

Hahaha! This reminds me of my son, counting his money this morning. I had given him his allowance and he counted out $18 total in his wallet. He said, "That's a LOT of money, mommy. You said it would take a LONG time to save up my money. I've almost got 100 dollars!"

Kids, huh?
