My Sister is "Heidi". And yes, she flew her nanny to Chicago, first class at that, with her because her kids "are too much to handle". Makes me wonder what life would be like if money wasn't an issue.
Sounds like your sister should have gotten a couple of cats instead of having kids. It would require the same level of engagement but kitties don't grow up to mouth off to you.

Because of those kids I'm "Uncle Batman" so the cat idea can take a hike.

That said...We live in a baby obsessed culture. I stress the word obsessed.

I could write a diatribe about it, but it wouldn't help and it will continue to fuck up our economy.

Actually...REALLY simple, load pics into google picassa and select pics you'd like to appy an effect to. (if the pics are all the same background, w/little movement of the background, it'll often do it for you, automatically).

It'll add snow to winter pics, or the moon to night pics, or motion to similar pics like this.

Which is a good thing if you ask me, it shows people are questioning things and becoming more informed, finding their place in life first. I use to want my own biological kids 'till I was asked what reason would I would want a child that isn't in some way selfish. I couldn't answer. If I ever decide on children in my life I will now adopt. Accidents of course are a different matter.
