		<description>Oh adorable!  Lovely post.  And I love when children fake a British accent.  It busts me up every time!

		<description>Thanks. :-) My fear is facing some end-of-world catastrophe and I cannot run. But that&#039;s another post. LOL.</description>

		<description>This is beautiful.  I especially love the fedora-wearing-hat-tipping bit.  I want to pass him in the street now and give him a &quot;how do.&quot;  

DVT is one of my top-ten hypochondriac worries.   See also: stroke, brain tumor, and blood poisoning.

		<description>:-)  I am not bothered by the accent. I&#039;d be worried when he has a friend named Soren Lorensen. ;-)</description>

		<description>Happy Birthday to your beautiful, sensitive boy!

I have a 7 year old who also breaks out the cockney after watching Charlie and Lola. A match made in heaven!

		<description>Dear all, thank you so much for the birthday wish and the kind words. I get sappy on this day every year esp. since his birthday always falls around Thanksgiving. DUH to the previous statement... But it is true: it does make me more reflective for all that I should be thankful for. I have also recently reconnected with a very good friend of mine and learned that during these years while I was missing from her life, she suffered and beat cancer, and gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. All these things just make me want to be a less sarcastic person because really, what hardship have I ever been through, the real kind? Ooops. This is turning into a post itself. I am a comment hog on my own blog! 

Thank you all again. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, as The Bloggess would say, y&#039;all! :-)</description>
