he's a sweet little kid - still believes in santa claus, still loves his blankie, but he's smart as a whip - intuitive, funny, and a little scamp - i think he'll be able to make the transaction from little boy - to boy with no problems

Its still too early to tell, but i see Lily ending up the same way. She learns thinsg like nothing, once she figures out a trick, she is a pro in no time. But i LOVE seeing that curious, innocent little psarkle in her eye. ihope she can maintain that lust for learning. I never lost it, even though schools and family did their damndest to squash it. It has helped me out tons, carreer wise. onc ei am interested in something, nothing will stop me from learnign as much about it as possible.
7 years ago, I taught myself HTML. Now, i know more than 13 computer languages, 3 of them full fledged programming languages. I cant wait to find out what Lily's interests are an help her pursue them as far as she can.
I was limited in many opportunities as a kid. i never got to take martial arts or gymnastics like i wanted too. I moved every few years, adn as a result, my ability to socialize was hurt. Hell, i still have pronblems getting close enough to people to have any real friends. But i love to write, and i love to learn.
Man, i am in a rambling mood today. Poor Bree, i will probably babble her ear off tonight.
