in the hospital, just after she was born.


last weekend






She'll be 3 in two weeks. She's now out of diapers.

How is it possible, how.

I love my days out going to shows and my nights on the town. But, today was one of the most perfect domestic days I've had in a long time, and the large majority of it was spent with Molly.

( behind the cut: a day in the life of a suburban mom. mostly for my own benefit, a simple record of the day. )This is one of the good days. One of the best. One of the days I am so glad to be Molly's Mom (and one of the days I don't actually feel like I'm doing too bad at it, either).

i see you.

That's it. Goodnight.

I got a bunch of fun pictures of her playing with the water in the
bath today. it's way too late tonight to post them but I will soon.

This one just makes me smile.

and just listens.


(for the record, that's The Hush Sound - 'Honey' that she's listening
to in quiet fascination. Who can blame her, Greta Salpeter's voice
stops me in my tracks, too.)
