Michelle has settled in a park for the day. There's a blanket laid out, soft cream, and really impractical for sitting on the ground, but very practical if one wants to spot any dirt before it comes too close to the small baby lying in the middle of it. Even the baby is impractically dressed for laying on the ground, but she does not care. Neither, as a matter of fact, does Michelle, as if there's one thing she's learned, the only practical clothing for a baby -- if one's aim is to do as little laundry as possible -- is nothing.
As it is a warm day, Elisheba's dressed in a light violet dress, and matching bonnet. Michelle's taken far less care selecting her own wardrobe, as it's important that Eli look her best today. She is meeting someone Michelle hopes will be of great importance.
As relaxed as she's been in a while, Michelle's taken to telling Eli stories; the content of which do not matter, as it's the voice, the interest that's keeping Eli as focused.
In the back of her mind, Michelle estimates another hour before food is required, and the diaper is still fresh, thanks to a change less than 10 minutes ago. This may be a relaxing day, but such estimations are never far from Michelle's mind.
