		<description><![CDATA[I asked my two older kids yesterday if they had to apply percentages to my parenting joyfulness vs. my crankiness, what would it be. One said 75/25 and the other said 60/40.

They are the ones we are tending to now as small children, and the ones too we&#8217;ll want to spend time with later, as adults.
