Happy New Year


It's been grim in Manhattan today, but New Year's Eve was gorgeous, if eerily warm, and afforded all sorts of opportunities for skywriting stunts. The Felix kept insisting this was the moon.

Lingering here, in the last hours of the first of the year feels a bit like standing at the edge of the high dive board. While 2006 was still around, the future was kept at bay, but now with the new year hurtling forward, there are things that can't be denied. I'm confessing here with some difficulty since even writing this down makes everything all too real.

Among the things I haven't really acknowledged is that I'm pregnant again, and to prove the extent of my denial, I'll confess that I'm due in April. I've passed the halfway mark and now I'm just trying not to imagine the springtime because the logistics alone feel like a killer.

Cheers to all.

Congratulations. I know how you feel. When I was pregnant with my second, I felt like I was jumping into a lake without knowing if I could swim. I could! Hope you can, too.
