A day in the life…

Today marks the end of my first official week as a stay-at-home mom (in order to get severance pay at my job I had to work for 2 weeks post-maternity leave. In that time, Ben was expertly taken care of by Kurt, my sister Sandra [with an assist from Shelley] and some friendly hobo I met who enthusiastically offered his babysitting services [what does a teardrop tattoo under your eye mean, anyway?]). Nobody is more surprised by this next sentence than I am: I am loving every minute of it. Me, who never wanted kids, whose idea of a good time is to stay out until 3am at a gay club, who never even changed a diaper before. I’m sure stranger things have happened although none spring immediately to mind.
