THIS MAKES FOR A HAPPY MAMA IN THE AFTERNOON
I realized that I had just finished an entire magazine article without being interrupted, and I knew that something was up. The house was silent. Calm.  So I peeked in and this is what I found. Two birds of a feather, passed out on the big bed. And that afternoon- well that afternoon was glorious. I did my hair and sat down on the couch to enjoy my lunch, alone and in peace, with a fashion magazine. You know, the sort of things that I took for granted before this whole motherhood thing happened. And just when I began to miss those sticky hands and slobbery baby kisses (Biet's) and loud music and laughter and bear hugs (Gaby's), I heard Papa and baby stirring in the bedroom. But that little break, well it changed my whole day. I'll take one every afternoon, please.
