5 years old
Dear CT,
You have brought us more joy in the past five years than you will ever know. You teach and taunt and torment your sister, and she will be better because of it. You are tender and loving with your baby brother beyond your years. You forge a path for us as parents and allow us to make mistakes and learn from them. You, my boy, are a gift. You have a glimmer in your eye that is mischievous and wonderful. You have a laugh that fills the room with joy. You have an understanding of things that you should not yet have. You have empathy. You have kindness. You have humor. You have energy and spirit. You will go far and you will do great things and I am so happy to be able to witness it all.
Happy 5th Birthday, I love you so.
Mom
Wilco
Yeah…sitting here on Sunday night watching our TiVo’d show of Austin City Limits with Wilco singing their hearts out and drinking wine, it’s a nice way to wind down the weekend. But you need to know, it has taken me some time to get here.
I am not a big audiophile, my repitoir and knowledge of music is very limited. But, I know what I like when I hear it and when I first heard Wilco, I DID NOT LIKE IT. OK, that may be a bit strong. I just didn’t like hearing it everyday and every night for weeks on end. On the other hand, Adam LOVES music (and Wilco) and so whatever he likes, I listen to. On that note, Wilco has been in heavy rotation and constantly playing either in the car or in our house for at least five-seven-ten months straight, I don’t know it’s all a blur. And now, finally, after not liking their music for soooo long, I will call it. Adam, you win. You have worn me down. Did you hear me? YOU WIN. I now like listening to Wilco.

No!
I have a little friend that helps me along the way. Let me tell you how much I love her. She is always there, isn’t a bother and I don’t even have to be think about her. If I were to become pregnant while Mirena is with me, well then…that little spirit wanted to be in this world so bad that I wouldn’t stop it. But right now, I am slugging down a glass of vino.
Cheers!
OH MY GOD
I just took a pregnancy test…and it’s positive!
