Makes the Job Worthwhile

In case some of you missed it (and shame on you if you did), last Sunday was Mother’s Day. As is sometimes usual, I was feeling a bit sorry for myself. Jeff had gone off to work for a few hours, and Miss Molly and I were finding entertainment where we could. I had purchased new pants and a shirt, sadly necessitated by an increase in girth, and was trying them on at home. I asked Molly what she thought of my new outfit.

She looked me up and down, her eyes intense. This is usually not a good thing. At two, she has not learned that sometimes honesty can be stretched a little in order to spare one’s feelings.

Instead, she surprised and delighted me by saying, “Your new outfit is beautiful.”

Update: Yesterday, while out shopping, I placed her in an cart and she declared, “This cart is beautiful.” Apparently orange carts and yours truly rate equally in the eyes of a toddler.

Hon - everything that is shiny, bright, new and wondrous to a 2-year-old can be called beautiful… and you? Are no exception to that, dear. I’m imagining how her mind sees and learns the world… the compliment is not diminished by the comparison (but you know that already ;-)).

Love to you all, and miss you much - tell me when’s a good time to call, ‘k?

Hi,
I was wondering if you can help me with what you have on the website “Ajaxy Goodness”. I searched everywhere on the internet to find some useful help in order for me to make your idea work on my site but no luck.

you did mention “AKA dialogue boxes” but I havent been able to find anything to get AKA. secondly there is no complete tutorial on your website for such a unique idea…My request is…kindly provide me with some step-by-step guideline on how to implement the “Ajaxy Goodness”.

I really appreciate your time and efforts, I m not an expert, my question might sound stupid, please pardon me if so…

Best Regards,
Zeeq
