            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’ve been playing around with the idea of blogging again. Most days I can barely come up with something interesting to say on my Facebook page, but I miss wresting with all the ideas floating around in my head, mixing them all together here on my blog like a cook making kung pao chicken at my favorite Chinese hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Mmmm, Chinese food.<br><br>Or maybe I’ll just post pictures of food.</p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=e30c852f8c04" width="1" height="1" alt=""><hr><p><a href="https://medium.com/narrowridge/picking-back-up-e30c852f8c04">Picking back up</a> was originally published in <a href="https://medium.com/narrowridge">Narrowridge</a> on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.</p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Annie, Ian and I went down to Turtle Bread for breakfast. Silvi spent the night with my parents, one of her favorite things to do. Candy, ice cream and mac and cheese around the clock; no wonder she loves it. <br><br>Then we took a drive around the lakes in the area, looking at the houses decorated for Halloween and the gorgeous, colorful trees. The tops of the skyscrapers in downtown Minneapolis were hidden in low clouds, adding to the moodiness of the overcast, wet day.<br><br>I’m down at my office, a stone’s throw from our apartment, editing a video for Dan Wilson. I’m also working on a few documentaries that have been sitting on my to-do list for way too long.<br><br>All in all, a nice and relaxing day…</p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=6a6798b73055" width="1" height="1" alt=""><hr><p><a href="https://medium.com/narrowridge/editing-on-a-rainy-sunday-6a6798b73055">Editing on a rainy Sunday</a> was originally published in <a href="https://medium.com/narrowridge">Narrowridge</a> on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.</p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks, everyone, for the kind comments and encouragement on the latest video clip. It helps keep me motivated and on track. The final documentary is going to be at least thirty minutes long and is part educational and part our son’s story.<br><br>I’m making this video because I want to capture the nuances, the joy and pain, the fear and the happiness of raising a child with Down syndrome. I want to be able to share that with other parents in similar situations as well as with the rest of the world who may not fully understand this journey.</p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=fcfe6475b909" width="1" height="1" alt=""><hr><p><a href="https://medium.com/narrowridge/thanks-fcfe6475b909">Thanks!</a> was originally published in <a href="https://medium.com/narrowridge">Narrowridge</a> on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.</p>]]></content:encoded>
