At Parenting.com: Pass the Reese's

I am not on vacation again, just a little busy with Pollitos and PR. Hang in there with me un poco.


Some of you who follow along here regularly may know Maria was diagnosed with a peanut allergy when she was 1. Well, la Nena got a new diagnosis last week and she has outgrown her nut allergy.

It is a whole new day, let me tell you. Our gratitude knows no bounds for this gift.

I wrote about it with a little more detail over at Parenting.com today.

Next week, I begin a regular gig volunteering in her classroom, working with the kids on their reading in Spanish. If, perhaps, I can help the nenes to read in the Mother Tongue, then maybe I will increase my own regular usage, which has been slipping slowly downhill lately. My guess is the exercise will provide mucho blogging fodder, as those bilingual kids are hee-larious -- in both languages.

That's terrific, Carrie!

My own son has a bunch of food allergies that we're hoping he'll outgrow as well.

I'm thrilled for you and your daughter. Just in time for Halloween :)

What’s everyone doing for safety precautions for Halloween? My husband came across an article (http://i-newswire.com/pr220892.html) with some info about background checking neighbors. I thought that may be a little overboard but it had some other good suggestions for some precautions I haven’t thought about. Last year my youngest son came down with a massive fever after Halloween. I almost thought about just taking the kids to our church’s fall festival this year instead of door-to-door to prevent that from happening again. I don’t know yet. What’s your advice? Am I over-reacted or just being a concerned mom?
