Well, I'm feeling lazy. I'm watching Jane Eyre, winding dryer balls for Christmas gifts, and hoping both my kidlets fall asleep soon enough that I can work a little on a mobius scarf for myself before my bedtime. It's a Sunday, after all.

My Sons Don't Match →
Heartfelt post on choosing not to circumcise the second time around.
And I cried because he didn’t match his brother.  His little, intact brother who was bathing along side of him.  My boys were splashing and smiling and I was crying because one day I would have to also explain why one penis didn’t look exactly like the other.

Society's Survival May Depend Upon Kids Who Haven't Been to School →

Most people just can’t imagine living without hierarchy, laws, leaders, and authorities telling them what to do and how to do it. In the same way, most adults cannot believe that children are capable of managing their own lives and learning without adult direction. We simply do not trust ourselves and other people, including our own children, to live peacefully and productively without being told what to do.
