I CAN&#8217;T BELIEVE SHE&#8217;S ALREADY NINETEEN! I cleaned up her poop when she was a baby!), Bernice, decided to help nudge me along my 30 List by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jaws has been living with us for a few months now and I have this massive love-hate relationship with her. On most accounts, she is very adorable, loyal and protective. Underneath all that bite is a very soft and timid dog. But when her idiosyncrasies kick in, such as thinking that she is in trouble [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My step-mum and step-sis celebrated their birthdays a few weeks ago. They both share the same birthdays, same birth time and same Chinese zodiac animal. If that is not creepily interesting, I don&#8217;t know what is. (And I&#8217;m sure I must have recounted this story a million times.) What&#8217;s creepier is that they are both [...]]]></description>

We had to change the sheets, clean her up twice, fed her more medicine, applied an ice-pack and hugged her to sleep. I brought her to her pediatrician [...]]]></description>

I wanted to stop the germ cycle once and for all, and was hoping that everything would clear up by today before she goes to my in-laws&#8217; tomorrow again. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Clare&#8217;s been falling ill every weekend for the past month. It&#8217;s like clockwork &#8212; come Friday and she&#8217;ll be down with a fever that will last till Sunday night. And the germs have been body-hopping among all of us. Right now, she&#8217;s got a really high fever; my throat, neck and head hurts; and Terence [...]]]></description>

Looking at myself in the mirror twice a day is more than enough because I hate reminding myself too often that I really do need to lose weight (and photoshopping my face is just too troublesome!).

		<description><![CDATA[Clare was quite ambivalent towards the baby yesterday. I thought she&#8217;d be upset that I was carrying her, but she just stared at the baby, then continued playing with her balloon. Our family welcomed another new addition yesterday &#8212; Kaitlin, my cousin&#8217;s second daughter. We visited her when she was just a few hours old, [...]]]></description>

One of the bumps on her foot has developed into a blister. The doctor can&#8217;t be sure that she has HFMD and told [...]]]></description>
