We’re home with Paton now, and it’s time to start again. This time, we know how it works with a new baby, but a few things are different. Most of all, Benjamin is here, and we’re trying to weave him into the Paton picture, and vice versa. Also, Paton will probably be different, although these earliest days of infanthood have to be pretty much the same. We have some help again, fortunately, in the form of my parents. Extra hands and more. Phew. Also, this time I cannot stay home for weeks. I was between jobs when Benjamin arrived (deliberately). I like my job now, and the economy isn’t in a place where I would deliberately risk something new just now.
That said, we have a sunny day in San Francisco, Benjamin and Paton are napping at the same time, and I have the computer to myself for a few minutes. Not bad.
