Taking after Alfred

"Do you think it's weird that Nora takes a nap so soon after she wakes up in the morning?" "No. Her grandfather does it."

"True. True."

Thankful

This morning as I lay in bed, I listened to J, who was changing Nora's diaper in her room and singing a jaunty song he'd made up on the spot about "explosive poop in your pants," and I smiled and thought about how many things I am thankful for this year. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you, near and far.
