Here in blogland I have been referring to my children as Kid One and Kid Two, so as not to reveal their true identities. But it's only right that I give credit where credit is due:
I got my inspiration, if you couldn't figure this out for yourselves, from the brilliant writing of Theodore Geisel, the one and only Dr. Seuss.
In "The Cat in the Hat," Geisel wrote about Thing 1 and Thing 2, and those monikers always stuck in my mind.
