Countdown.

In less than two weeks, the Animalia and I, we're going on a short vacation to Washington, DC to visit her Nina Boymagnet. This is very exciting for all of us but I am a little concerned about traveling with an infant all by myself. People do it all the time, I know, but it's a long flight for someone who wants to be crawling and cruising all the time. We'll be fine.

The minute I bought the tickets, the Animalia started packing her tiny suitcase. She packed a bib, a piece of paper, one of those doughnut shaped things that goes on her stacker toy, and one diaper. I asked her if she was packing wipes and food for the trip. She said no, that she'd be fine. And then she crawled out to the curb, using one hand and two feet as her second hand was dragging the suitcase, and has been waiting there, sitting on the suitcase, ever since. I told her to come inside, what would the neighbors think, and she just shrugged her shoulders.
