Ok, now I have a few min I'll write a longer update.  Michele is 
now 26 months.  She is wonderful.  She was potty trained at 21 
months.  Now she talks like a book.  She didn't talk much but at 
about 22 months started and just hasn't stopped since.  She loves 
helping with every thing around the house, better than all her 
toys.  She just started doing things from about 10 months, and 
just continues with no encouragment from me.  The only problem we 
have is that she is fairly strong-willed...  She has a mind of 
her own.  My music just isn't happening.  I still don't know why 
the Lord had me do that cd.  I think it was because I had a dream 
to do one.  I did a song writing course last year but that 
doesn't happen any more.  I want to start piano again, but want 
to find a teacher who travels to the home to make it a bit 
easier.  I play in nursing homes once in a blue moon when Stan 
isn't working.  Anyway, that just about brings you up to date
