We surprised him with a sports water bottle, a stack of new books, and the day "off" with me at the other school. He is so full of thoughts and ponderings, and is so ready to share them easily, with a curiosity and openness that almost seems to trip over itself in his eagerness. And that budding sense of humor that comes from a growing awareness of himself and the world, that is full of a twinkle in his eye and a sharp wit of his surroundings, I love that.
I remember hanging out with you at Erin & Jermaine's (just met up with them this weekend in Philly!) when you were pregnant with him. You made pregnancy so beautiful!
