tub time

Just a funny thing:  I have to give Katie a bath tonight, and I was thinking about how she's pretty good until I comb through the conditioner and rinse it off.  I have found that if I sing to her (and believe me I am no singer) she enjoys it and laughs, most likely at me. Hey, whatever works! The latest song is 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover, and she loves it!  Kudos to Paul Simon.

p.s. My nephew just got accepted to Berklee School of Music (yay!) and they have a class on Paul Simon.  How cool is that?!

Hop off the bus Gus...

Neurology: Genetics (Journal)

So, this is really fantastic news! Katie is now famous with an article about her mutation in Neurology: Genetics.  🙌 The hope is that her rare mutation will now be known about, and maybe we will find more people with this same mutation. This could lead to more grant money and hopefully more knowledge about this mutation and, well I don't know what else - but all good things!  This has been in the works for a while.  This is a very exciting moment in science and in our household!  🍻
