The Luckiest No Matter What!

CARTER BING is ONE.  I can't even.  I really can't.  I'm embarrassed to admit how many tears were shed as I put him to bed on May 2nd - his last night not being one.  What We Learned About Carter: Last month, I reflected on three things being important to Carter: eating, walking, and talking.  These three still remain except now he is better at all three of them...
