There is nothing back there except an old fence and the neighbor&#8217;s field. Sometimes Dylan, the neighbor&#8217;s son uses the steps when he walks over to see Ethan. So we call them Dylan&#8217;s steps.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is Spirit Week at the local middle school and today was 80&#8242;s day. I had the rare pleasure of  styling my son&#8217;s hair, blow drying it into a poofy pompadour, rolling his jeans, loosening his high-top sneakers and most importantly getting that collar to STAND UP! Then I took a series of very weak photos to display our effort. Hey! I can&#8217;t be the stylist AND the photographer! And this is the CD a few nights ago wearing plaid [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This post originally ran in April 2007 The country doctor had the sad task today to inform a nice elderly lady that she had cancer. The lady came in with her husband and they sat together in the office while the country doctor went over the various options for her treatment. After the lady and the doctor had talked quite a while, the country doctor turned towards the husband who had been silent throughout the entire discussion. &#8220;Bob&#8221; asked the [...]]]></description>

When we get on our flight headed towards Heathrow airport, it will be noon in Kansas City.

		<description><![CDATA[This story was originally posted on August 25th, 2007 during the construction of our house. Yesterday, the country doctor and I spent almost an ENTIRE morning together running errands in Manhattan, Kansas. The van needed a repair, so he was forced to pick me up &#8211; on his day off &#8211; and I then forced him to walk through several furniture stores, pick out paint chips at Sherwin Williams and buy a cup of coffee at Bluestem Bistro, my favorite [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This story originally ran during on August 19, 2007.     We were just East of Goodland, Kansas on Interstate 70, when the Country Doctor spied a crop duster flying low over a field of corn. The plane was bright yellow and zooming back and forth across the field. The boys were spellbound. &#8220;Hey boys,&#8221; the Country Doctor announced,&#8221;you think we could race that plane?&#8221; Now my boys are not idiots, and they have been through this type of scenario [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We purchased a living, balled and burlaped blue spruce for our Christmas tree this year. After three weeks in the house, we had an unusually warm day on December 29th and decided to plant it. The Country Doctor called Drew over to help him. &#8220;Let&#8217;s plant this tree together son!&#8221; the Country Doctor exclaimed, &#8220;As the years pass, we can look out the dining room window and watch the tree grow.  When you are older, you will remember with fondness [...]]]></description>

Oh yeah&#8230; because we went to Panera for lunch on Sunday. And while there&#8230; someone in my family&#8230; who is not me&#8230; got aggravated because he thought the store was confusing and he did not know where to stand in line to place his order. And then this someone ordered a &#8220;You Pick Two&#8221; but was disappointed to [...]]]></description>

As you can see ma&#8217;am&#8230;. you cross lateral bypass has seriously interferred with your hydrocephaletic nerve stream causing pressure on you stickiloital scrapula. What?

		<description><![CDATA[We are a family of movie watchers.  Well, actually five of us are movie watchers.  The Country Doctor is not a movie watcher.  He can&#8217;t sit still long enough to watch a movie.  It is far too self indulgent of an activity for him and besides, surely there are some punishing, maggot infested trees he needs to chop down with a dull axe, in a frozen forest, which he can only reach on foot, wearing a thread bare t-shirt and [...]]]></description>

I worked half the day at the Garden Center before their arrival, so was in a bit of a tiz when I got home to get the house ready for company and preparations for dinner under way.  The Country Doctor had taken half of the day off so he was already home when I arrived.  He asked me what he should do to [...]]]></description>

I find that I can no longer do any jumping jacks without&#8230; well without&#8230; well&#8230; I just can&#8217;t do them. I also stopped sleeping deeply, with any rhythm or with much hope of ever sleeping well again. As my children have grown, I have somewhat re-discovered the benefits of a good&#8217;s nights sleep, but I still sleep lightly, waking up at the smallest sounds and then struggling to get back to [...]]]></description>

Actually the truth is that I always knew about those two boxes of photos. I kept them on a shelf above the washer and the dryer and I had been tossing packets of photos into those two boxes for years. But the move forced me to physically lift the boxes, touch the photos, [...]]]></description>

It was a pretty decent gash, but I am the mother of four boys and deep gashes mean very little to me. Unless the child is missing a limb, drowning in a pool of blood, or unconscious, I don&#8217;t get too worried. So Drew was upset and I had him lay down for a nap. Later that evening, we had &#8220;Back to [...]]]></description>
