We did it.
These children are already strong –
Perfection armored.
Carve this
On the soles of my green boots:
We did it.

Today, I am extremely happy, and I’d like to note this for the future. I had a great night, a tasty breakfast of an Indian wrap, pancakes and chai with kids (and the pancakes came out really well, although I was worried – blueberry and chocolate), a loooooooong nap, a well-made book (Jennifer Donnely’s The Stepsister brought by L), great pizza (made by R), a beautiful and unexpected Mother’s Day card, promises of a surprise breakfast for tomorrow, and plenty of hugs. It was a perfect day.
Typical mom story

I made a site that I’m quite proud of, an adventure through San Francisco. And my kid asks to read it, and since I’m quite proud of it I pull up a short biography of Agoston Haraszthy. And he reads it with the world’s most stoic poker face. Revolution? Wolves? Gosh-darned crocodiles? Not a lash moves.
So I ask him – how come? and he says: “What’s there to be surprised about? It’s a typical mom story”. And the worst thing is – he’s right. Eh 🙂
I’m still adding locations to the site. The first 70 or so are up, and I have another 70 lined up for next week. The problem is – every time I write up one place I discover three other places and two people to add to my backlog. The Hydra of San Francisco History is eating my braaaaaain!!! :)))
