1. Borax takes out breast milk stains. Like, totally and completely gets them out. Thank you to Kirsten for sharing this great tip with me.  My wardrobe has now retained eight t-shirts that were otherwise going to be binned.  There comes a point when I cannot bear wearing another item of clothing with a milk stain on it.

2. Yesterday I went without the internet at home ALL DAY LONG. This sounds like it shouldn’t be a major achievement, but it was pretty remarkable for me. This makes me think that perhaps I really do have some issues with internet addiction, and I am thinking about ways I can get it under control. Right after I finish this blog post, of course.

3. Some friends were talking about perfectionism while we were at the park today, and it got me thinking about the statement, “perfectionism is boring.” I think it’s true, for lots of different reasons.  What does it mean to be an imperfect parent?  I think this idea will evolve into a post of its own.

4. The sun has finally come out and I can feel summer coming. Bring it on, I say. Bring it on!
