"Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them." – Albert Einstein

“Theres a liiiiiigggghhhht!!”

 Back to real blogging by Friday.

 Until then, I leave you with another heart warming and illustrative anecdote.

I had to work late again last night, but I threw everything in the car just after 8pm, so that I could get home and steal a few more moments of quality time with my little man before he went to bed, and I could pick up where I left off while he slept.

He asked for his favorite Backyardigans video (“Super Spy” who likes his juice boxes shaken, not stirred). Harry tucked himself under my arm as we sank together into the soft leather of the couch to watch “The Lady in Pink” get foiled again.

He looked up at me, put his hand along my face, and intoned gravely “Mommy, I am glad you are here.”

So am I, Baby, so am I.

    Those are the best moments. Just when you’re feeling all frazzled, seems like they say the sweetest things. I think some babies are a little bit psychic that way.

    I’m sort of kind of anxiously waiting for Jacob to start saying things like that. (then again I’m sort of kind of anxiously not because well… yeah.)

    Doesn’t that make you just melt into a puddle of mommy goo??
