Druid is a whole YEAR OLD! I can't believe I've actually survived a whole year with 3 kids aged 3 and under. Frightening prospect. 
I suppose that while everyone else of my age has always believed themselves somewhat invincible, I have always seen a very different picture. I feel so fragile and so doomed. Teenagers do stupid crap because "Nobobody can touch me" syndrome has hit them all too hard. As a teen, I admit I did all of the "stupid stuff"but I did it as a means to perhaps finally push that last straw onto the camel. To see how far I could go before my world was in utter ruin. It crumbled. Often actually. But it always rebuilt. As miserable and weak as I have always felt, I have somehow thrived in the chaos. Like a weed.
