We're Taking Over the World!

Let this serve as fair warning for all you right-handers...we southpaws are taking over the WORLD!

I was just reading a newsletter I subscribe to which is full of all sorts of useless information, and I learned that I missed International Left-Handers Day. It was August 13. Funny - I don't recall seeing anything about the holiday on CNN or Fox News. How could they have missed it?

The same article references a store called The Left Hand (www.thelefthand.com). It has all sorts of stuff designed especially for us! All this time, we've just had to adapt to the right-handers' world...who knew that we could customize things and create a world all our own?!?!

As an aside, Brian is horribly afraid that Blair is going to be a righty. I'm starting to see his point, as her right hand does seem to be her first choice for picking things up. Let's all say a prayer that we're wrong...two left-handed parents raising a right-handed child? DFCS might take her away from us if they ever got word of such an atrocity. Please don't tell anyone.

Anna Katherine and Rus send their hearty approval to your world takeover bid! (Just be sure it's not a World Domination Tour; we both know there's only ONE of those, and it's in full swing, baby!)
Ryan and I, the family righties, will sit quietly in the back row and let you have your moment.

Lol! My husband is also a lefty and gets rather perturbed when our son reaches for things with his right. I don't think kids 'pick' a hand until they're around two, do they?
