The things that really matter


My best friend Heidi brought her son Benjamin into the world yesterday evening. All ten pounds and two ounces of him. Without drugs. What did you do yesterday?

I cleaned up vomit that my child so kindly left for me in the living room. The tummy bug still rages on...

Ten pounds and no drugs??? She's braver than I am. Send my best to Heidi and the family!

Ugh. I still have residual snot, and I absolutely do not envy you your vomit. I mean, your kids' vomit. You know.

What a sweet, sweet baby. And what a great name...

I got drenched in some of the 5 inches of rain that fell yesterday, taught a piano lesson, played for 2 rehearsals, did a bunch of laundry, fed my children a really lame dinner (my husband had a meeting) and played Mario Kart for too long before finally going to bed too late. This is the kind of day you have AFTER having that wonderful first meeting with your children. Very glamorous life.
