Last year around this time, my little bit had just turned 8 and was one of 20 children chosen from across the country to compete on Lifetime's new reality quiz show\/documentary \"Child Genius\". The camera crew spent a couple of days with us filming Eden for the documentary portion of the show as she did everything she usually does including playing her violin, riding her scooter, playing tennis, making sushi, crocheting, and studying. After that we went out to LA to compete in the quiz show portion of the show. We were told that the show should air sometime in September, but when September, October, and then November passed, I figured the show had been shelved. I breathed a sigh of relief believing I had been spared the humiliation of the ill fitting sweats I wore to the park being immortalized on the show for all of television (and internet) history. I got an email in December that said it still could happen... @#$%. Soon after the email, the website was up, Lifetime added Eden's bio to it, press releases went out, there was chatter on Twitter and Facebook, and I was in a minor panic. What. Had. We. Done."}
