A wee babe this AM and we almost dropped him. Babies are slippery, y'all. Fortunately his daddy was right there and grabbed him. His mom was standing up so gravity had a go. Big sister slept through the whole thing.
Then I went dancing. I cleaned the house, threw the ball for the dog, put the clean clothes away and NOW I get to have a bath and a lie down. With the Sunday NYT, heaven.
I skip over the bad news of the world and head right for the society pages. And the magazine section and finally, the book reviews.
Why do I read the society pages? Because the NYT started putting in same sex weddings; photos, ceremonies and all. Some day we'll all have the same rights. Washington passed a same sex marriage bill but you know the opposition is gearing up to referendum the thing. Right this very day, from the pulpit there's hate a-brewing.
My love and I threaten 'traditional' marriage. ((flex flex))
I had no idea we were so powerful.
GRRRRRRR !!!!

That's what I love the most about the NYT too! I swear to god.
Lily is due tomorrow. She was trying to pull over a big bamboo stalk for Owen to play with today and it popped and she landed on her tailbone and now she can hardly sit down. I feel so BAD for her.
But of course, no membranes broke, no labor has started. Those babies- they have their own time frame, don't they? And hell yes! They are slippery, those little baby-fish.
I can't wait.
And I can't wait until we all have the same rights.
You and your love ARE powerful. But not in the way the haters say.
Love to you both...Mary
Let me know if you ever need a violinist at your wedding.

Mary dear-Poor Lily, ouch. How about some Traumeel for her coccyx and some oral arnica (homeopathic). Can't help myself.
Waiting on the news that she's birthed healthily and well.
XX Beth
Rebecca- you bet!
She's got arnica for inside and out. We got that today. Thanks. Seems like that's about all she can do besides going to the chiropractor which she did and which she said helped her.
Thanks.
Now- as to weddings- I have been known to officiate at those things. Of course, I am pretty darn far away.
Gawd, Mary and Rebecca! We'd have a party.
