Guest guest Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 I've gathered that DH means husband, DD means daughter, and DS means son. Right? What's the " D " for on all of them?? In my case I could say it meant " dweeby husband " , " dynamic daughter " , and " destructive son " , but I do wonder what it means for real?

Here most schools are completely nut free, and I have been told by my ped not to introduce PB until atleast age three! Just wondering where everyone is, that PB is allowed at school.

My kids have always been vegetarian, and since I am too (and meat isn't allowed in the house for any reason) they don't have any choice but to eat healthy... most of the time, anyway. Try apples with some peanut butter, actually I use sunflower seed butter, but either way they love it. And pretty much any vegetable dipped in something will go with them. Even if they're not in the mood for vegetables, I give them some refried beans or salad dressing and they'll eat it, if only so they can feel all grown up dipping it.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Usually Dear or Darling, sometimes D*mn (when it comes to the husband!) We'll see how I feel about the children when I get home today. My school is open and theirs is closed, so we're all going to work today.
