Three years ago, today, Odysseus and I sped to the hospital at 2:00 p.m. in the afternoon. I got a spinal block at 4:00 p.m., and my pixie was born at 4:30 p.m.
It's been a fun three years, even as it's been frustrating, and insanity-inducing. She's so very cuddly and affectionate (much the opposite of the imp, unless he's sleepy or sick). So very girly. I found, last night after she'd gone to bed, that she'd tucked a green army man into the folds of a baby blanket, and put him to bed.
So, this afternoon, after work, we're going up to visit Grandma and Grandpa, for the pixie's birthday.

Maybe that's a sign she's going to marry a soldier some day. She could do worse. The town where my son was born is on the other side of the mountains. Once in a blue moon I go over there, and when I drive by the hospital I always think of that day. So I know how you are feeling today.
ReplyDeleteI would not mind if she did.
