Creative Genius -- Dooce

Dooce is a blog that I follow religiously; how can you not love a blogger who describes herself as a "recovering Mormon"? Although perhaps a bit to "pop culturesque" for me at times, I think that she's a riot. She's completely obsessed with her dogs, amazed by her daughter, and a totally brilliant writer. To top it all off, she's found a way to turn her past-time in to her job; since 2005, the advertising that she sells on the blog supports her family (I'm telling you, she's amazing). Suffice it to say, I'm a Dooce addict.

Anyway, each month she writes a letter to her daughter, Leta, and posts it; this month's letter is particularly wonderful. For anyone who has lived under the same roof as a three year old...who knows anyone who has a three year old...or who observes three year olds out and about (esp. when they're throwing fits in the grocery store!), you MUST read this posting. For everyone else who thought that the terrible twos started at 24 months of age and ended at 36, you MUST read this (BTW, three is SO much worse than two!). For anyone who just needs to laugh, read this!
