My "cool" factor is about as steady as the stock market. Right now I'm pretty cool because I was able to re-install NetNanny so she could cruise the Net again. Tomorrow I will not be cool because I will not let her stay ...
Almost like clockwork, Emily asked today to see some of the posts about her. We came to this one, nearly exactly 2 years later. I asked if I still made everything cool. "Well, not everything, but most things." And so...
Well, so far so good. Emily (now 10 1/2) asked me to pull up some posts about her. She likes to read what Dad wrote about here, especially the angel conversation. After reading this one she told me I was cool again. ...

My "cool" factor is about as steady as the stock market. Right now I'm pretty cool because I was able to re-install NetNanny so she could cruise the Net again. Tomorrow I will not be cool because I will not let her stay at the house on an early release school day afternoon. I am so dadgum cruel to her sometimes.
