		<description><![CDATA[The hardest part of parenting for me is letting go. Letting my kids travel a path I know has an easier route is incredibly frustrating. I&#8217;ve been a parent for 11 years to one, 8 years to another, and 5 to the youngest. All three are their own unique brand of &#8220;Bryan&#8221; and I&#8217;ve learned ...]]></description>

There are many many reasons I could be fired, but let&#8217;s just take ...]]></description>

Be glad I didn&#8217;t find any suitable barf pictures to post. With three children, the barfy bug incubation period is perfectly timed so that it plows through the family and, just ...]]></description>
