My baby makes the New York Times!

No, not one of my novels but my baby offspring.  She’s the one in the front row in the hat.  She and her brother (who, incidentally, has sported a mohawk every summer for the last three years) go to this church to listen to underground or alternative bands.  Good clean fun.  Most of the kids I know who go are in Catholic school, driven by or picked up by parents (often me or my husband).

To the neighborhood I say, lighten up.  They may be loud and dressed in a way your generation deems inappropriate, but at least the pack of teenagers on the street isn’t hitting you over the head or thiefing your purse.  Not that night, anyway.

    Cool! Nice article, too. Umm… I’m thinking that perhaps you want to put a note under the photo to click on it to read the article. It took me a while to figure it out. Maybe it’s just me. LOL! I’m sure everyone is way smarter and already knows to click on the photo.

    Hey ladies,

    Thanks for reading and commenting. Paz, please forgive me. I thought I’d put in that you should click on the photo, but alas I had not. Oops!

    Lynn, that’s why I’m so pleased with the article. Nobody getting mugged or whatever in an article about teenagers. It’s rare, but it does happen.

    Cool. I’m on my way to read the article now.
