Baby showers, like bridal showers, have great possibilities. On one hand, the event could be a sweet celebration with close friends in anticipation of an amazing, life changing event. The other possiblity, not to sound ungrateful, is a pile of useless gifts and too much cake.

Last week I was talking with some local indie business people about the need for a space where parents can work and network with their kiddos in tow -- something like a playground or a cafe that was both kid- and parent-friendly. So this morning I was pleased when I received word that just such a spot is slated to open this weekend.
Playmatters, which will celebrate its grand opening this Saturday on Phinney Ridge, is conceived as a place where parents and other caregivers can network while their children ages birth through five can safely play.

Although we've lived in West Seattle for several years, it wasn't until last summer that I got into the Water Taxi Habit. We live just far enough from the Seacrest dock that it never seemed to be anything more than a bus alternative, but once I actually rode the thing, I realized that speed is not the point of getting on the little boat.

There is nothing cuter than a baby's first pair of shoes -- so tiny and pristine, symbolic of innocence. Soon enough, though, baby grows, crawls, then walks, and as he discovers more of the world, his shoes begin to show signs of wear. The years to come will require so many trips to the shoe store that parents can be forgiven if they start to find the whole process rather tiring.
