You Belong in Rock and Roll

Holden-

Chill out in there little man! You've got everyone worried b/c you are kicking me so much that it's making me cramp. Grrr. I put the laptop on my tummy for one second and you kicked it right off! How does one little 24-week-year-old do that?? You are going to be the most precocious thing in the world but you really need to hang out in there for a little longer. Like at least 3.5 months. I appreciate your alacrity but I promise it's better this way.

Sadly, Daddy is in San Fran for work. But yesterday we experienced some great Silver Strings moments (our personalized phrase for fate turning around us) when he saw a biillboard for the new "Race to Witch Mountain" !!!!! Yes, there is a new one come out after like 20 years hahahah. Amazing....it will come out about a month before your birthday.


Also, we had this text message exchange yesterday:

Da: "Another long day. Wish I had family time. Are you ok?"
Ma: "Yeah, Andrew came over and we watched 'Mirrors." Got tea and book "Revolutionary Road" that the movie is based on.
Da: "I'm on page 96!"
Ma: "Of what book?"
Da: "Same one."
Ma: "What in the freak that is so weird?!"

We had no idea that the either person was buying the book or interested in the book or even I think that we knew the book existed! I had just mentioned wanting to see that movie a while back. I think he bought it at the airport and I just decided on an impulse to get it at the bookstore yesterday. Totally strange but beautiful. BTW, that movie was scary! Sorry, baby.

Had a great hike today with Tifferz! We had some sandwiches and great conversation as we trekked through a nearly empty forest with canopied trails. Got a great picture of beautiful Tiffs crossing the treacherous creek:



Ok that's all I got for now. Going to have some Yogi Mother's Tea and finish my Wally Lamb book. I can't believe that epic tale is nearly over!

Love you,
Baby Mama

Awww. This is a cute post. Yes, Holden, you need to stay inside until at least late April. Although a May 10 debut is ideal.
