Don’t go changing

March 21st, 2007 in Uncategorized

Quinn turns five on Friday. FIVE. There’s something so, oh I don’t know, all grown up sounding about five. By four I really couldn’t consider him a toddler anymore. I had already pushed it with three. But he was definitely still a pre-schooler. And could ride the bus for free. But now, five. That’s like a big kid number. That’s “school age”. He’ll probably lose his first teeth while he’s five. And then take those dorky school photos with the holes in his mouth and the crooked bangs.

I just hope that he doesn’t get so grown up that he stops squeezing me around the neck while proclaiming, “Mommy, I just want to hug you and kiss you and snuggle you forever”. At least not yet. I’m really not prepared for that to stop.

Raising a Kid
I'm Quinn's mom. He's basically The Cutest Kid in the Known Universe. Ok, I know, your kid's cute too, but this one's mine. He was born in March of 2002 and came home from the hospital to a shower of Cherry Blossoms.

Founding Companies
In January 2007 Thor & I joined forces with Lane Becker of Adpative Path to found Satisfaction Unlimited. You can get a sneak peak by going here and clicking on any company or organization that suits your fancy. And you can get more insight by checking out our Satisfaction Blog. Previous to Satisfaction I was a founding partner of Rubyred Labs, a design driven Internet product development firm where we made cool stuff and enjoyed breakfast, particularly when it involved cereal, coffee and grapefruit. Jonathan Grubb is still running Rubyred.

Keeping the Peace
All this has left me craving a nap, but I still somehow manage to find time to travel with my brilliant and adorable husband (and sometimes my friends), experiment in the kitchen, and hit the town with my gorgeous, smart, single gal pals who are in search of kind, eligible men (I know you're out there...)
