The world spinning round
Today Amazon sent “It’s All Good Hair: The Guide to Styling and Grooming Black Children’s Hair” since that might be something we need to know very soon. Just this moment, I ordered The Baby Whisperer but in a DVD so that we can watch it together – a friend recommended it after her third child and told me she wished she’d have had it when her first was born.
We’ve been trying to figure out what goes where when the baby comes, and where to put grandma and family when they come to help. And trying to train Loca not to leap on the bed and jump up spastically because there might be a tiny baby on the other side of her very soon.
I know there will be a day in my future where I miss sitting on the front porch sipping a glass of wine and wondering what to do next, but honestly 49 years of wondering what to do next is happily replaced with 18 years of raising a child (ask me later on this one).
In the meantime, who is going to take care of mother?
