33 & screw Dick, Jane and Spot (long)

Our HMO used to have a wonderful program where we had the support & help of a nurse trained in early childhood development for a year after Kieran was born. When he was one week, she did a test and pronounced him 'highly organized'. This meant that from the start, he could fixate on one thing & tune everything else out. We weren't too surprised considering how borderline OCD I am, but some days he rivals me in sorting/organizing everything possible into various categories.

I don't know if this is what comes with the territory of living in Seattle, or if my baby is a geek. God help me either way, this is uncharted territory as far as I'm concerned!
