yesterday and the baby clothes just hit me in the face. I never noticed them before. Went home with little undershirts, tiny bodysuits and a few other things. What fun!

During our first it was pork chops like three or four times a week. I ran out of ways to cook them.

Hope baby and mother continue to do well throughout the pregnancy and there is a safe outcome for all concerned.

Anything you want to say on due date? Possible names? Or is it too soon for that stuff?

I always thought you were kind of a geezer too. Maybe because you have such a mature perspective on things. But I'm very happy for you. How old are you?

I can see some fine days ahead for the young Pitt to be, cuz I been there.

Raven and my Mom have tons in common with the whole NH Pioneer Lady thing (My Mom can kick Martha Stewart's ass, win the Old Home Day pie contest, and is one of the kindest people on Earth)
Dad was a tough act to follow - natural speedreader, scholarly hillbilly, loved peace and justice as only a hard combat veteran can. Any tool in his hands was a precision instrument, from sledgehammers to Jo blocks. When he passed, the town librarians sent flowers.

In ways that I'm only beginning to understand, growing up with my outwardly stodgy folks was more like being raised by pirates, in a really good way- your kid is in for quite a ride, in the sense of "wouldn't change it for the world".
