Chopped egg
Last weekend, I made Namine breakfast so Jessica could sleep in. She wanted a fried egg. I’m not a good cook (or deserving of the title “cook” at all) by any stretch of the imagination, but I did my best. It did not turn out well, but that didn’t matter.

Chrome extensions update
I just released version 2.0 of my Chrome extension Panel View for Play Music! I rewrote the CSS and JavaScript to support Google’s new interface layout.

An exercise in frustration
I gave Namine an impossible task. She’s been working on it for two nights, with no sign of tiring. Contrary to how I thought she’d react, she has embraced it, eager to help and ready for more.

Faith like a child
Namine told me this morning, I’m drawing Jesus on the cross. But He’s not done yet because He’ll rise from the dead.

2013 in review
Kids, this has been one crazy year. I can assure you, never did we think at the start of it that Namine would have endured half the stuff she has, to say nothing of getting a prosthetic and having heart surgery.

Therapy
Despite Namine’s crazy sleep pattern the night before last, she performed admirably in therapy. However tired she may have been, she worked her little butt off.

Taken for granted
Before Namine was born, I thought of the handicap bathroom stall as nothing more than a luxury upgrade to the regular stalls. Now, I have the firsthand experience to know better.
