Flying solo...

Dear Nicky,

Mom had to leave very early this morning to get to the airport to fly to Reno for the big Romance Writers convention she attends every year. This means she woke up even earlier, which woke me up, which means I'm extra tired today. But you're so good, and that makes it easier. Which is important because she won't be back till Sunday. So far with Stepping Stones we've been lucky in terms of traffic. It's okay going out there and coming back. In fact we were back in Hoboken in about half an hour after we left. I didn't have anything to eat all morning, which made me sleepy. But the funny thing is, even though I always make sure to go the bathroom before we leave for SS, and I don't have anything to drink there, I always have to take a whiz like a madman halfway home. You slept for about two hours after lunch, on your tummy, and under my constant supervision, and it was a nice, deep sleep I could tell. Overnight, we always put you on your back, but I don't think there's any doubt babies sleep better on their stomachs.

Love,
Dad
