		<title>Last Day of School 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First things first. Sorry Detroit about being bested by the Penguins. Cubs fans in Chicago are good at saying there&#8217;s always next year (which usually happens in June), but c&#8217;mon Penguins?  Waddling Tuxedo wearers?   Pittsburgh!?!?!
Aidan and Elise spend their last day, well technically the last day was just an hour, of class at a luau. After <a href="http://www.chranko.org/2009/06/last-day-of-school-2009/" class="more-link">More &#62;</a>]]></description>

Ok so the real story is hit hit a grounder along the 3rd base line.  The third baseman, fielded the ball and heaved it to first.  The kid was at 3rd for a reason, that being he could throw the ball <a href="http://www.chranko.org/2008/07/home-run/" class="more-link">More &#62;</a>]]></description>

		<title>Happy Birthday America!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today on the recognized birth of our country, Aidan learned to ride his bike sans training wheels.  Minor squawking, limited requests to put the back on, but dagnabit, he did it on his first try out.  That&#8217;s true American gumption, now, isn&#8217;t it?
Elise, meanwhile, occassionally looks on from her perch on the playground.

		<title>Summer begins!</title>

As countless of previous Americans with limited entertainment options, Aidan began his journey in to the snoozefest that is baseball/tball&#8230;Park District T-Ball no less.  He is on the Cubs and seems to enjoy hitting the ball and catching <a href="http://www.chranko.org/2008/07/summer-begins/" class="more-link">More &#62;</a>]]></description>
