grateful

grace's self portrait of her little naked legs while she sits at the table...love that you can still see the remaining roll lines around her ankles, even though the rolls are long-gone-

grateful today for:
mini-date night last night with john...eating soup, drinking hot chocolate, catching up

part-two date night with grace, all sharing a cup of tea at bookstore, coloring with sharpies with grace in her new fairy book-

rainy day today and going to bank yard sale with grace, and thrifted pants for joey and sandra bonyton books for both kids

layers

grace napping

homemade pancakes (thanks johnny!) for breakfast and then scalp massages-

long days with no plans

maybe going to the library later with johnny and grace just for something to do-

new socks

no hospital visits today

my nurse practitioner who called grace (and i!) gorgeous, even though she was buttering us up, and she noticed that we had on the same danskos!

homemade pumpkin bread, and yes, i ate the whole loaf-

the fact that i have the crazy ability to gain 10 pounds in three weeks (see above)

thoughts of upcoming shower get-together, seeing friends and family

next weekend's girl dinner get-together...i miss everyone

writers that write about india

david sedaris's novel-

the fact that i saw that one of my favorite authors (david eggers) has a new book out...must read asap-

off to eat bad fish and chips, but i'm starving! and i need some way to wash down my peanut butter cup :)
