Hey, that's great news. When was she born? I don't know A very well, but yesterday, I got a vivid mental picture of her in the late afternoon.

(& speaking of new parents, i missed all o' y'all @ D&V's pool party last weekend... i'm going crazy getting ready for burning man)

That's very appropriate, since some friends of mine just had a baby as well :)

'twas the season?
i'm thinkin' that 9-10 months ago, people must have been snuggling to keep warm during the winter, and you know what that leads to...

My son was a result of spring fever - born in January.

...me too (01/23/72)!
i have always thought my birthday was cool, but i had a girlfriend whose father was born on 01/23/45... and i realized that if he had been born @ 4:32:10, then his birthday would have been a palindrome: 01234543210

Brian is a huge fan of Mr. Gibran, it is a he right? Thank you so much for sharing, will have to go home and find that poem!
Burning Man huh? In a few months we should have another semi annual phone conversation!
with love, jess

indeed, Kahlil Gibran was a man...
the poem can be found in Chapter 4 of The Prophet
...and may i ask when are you due?
i am sure that we will have much to talk about when i return from burning man!

Shanta, that is beautiful. Thank you for posting.

we should read each other poetry more often...

heatherthegreat September 23 2005, 00:09:57 UTC

Or myths as the case may be... XD
I'm looking forward to Friday night... two bugs snug in a rug reading to each other! Sounds utterly delightful to me!

maybe we'll eventually be able to make those myths a reality, eh?
