This is Ollie, up close. The quote for today is from Carl Sandburg and an interesting one, I think. I like it because it makes me think of the future of my family. Who will Zoey and Ollie become? Zoey, as most people know, already has a unique and quirky little personality. But, what and who will she become? Trivial things like--will she play soccer (currently she thinks so, but because of Dora) or be the softball player Matty and I would both love, will she be the actress she seems destined to be, will she be like us and fall in love to hard and too quickly, will she love school as much as it seems? It is hard to tell. But, with Ollie, it is even more ambiguous. The only clue to what he is like right now is that he is very mellow so far (only crying when I change his diaper) and really likes to eat! Who is "in there" waiting to emerge? Zoey and Matty are at church, Ollie is chilling out, and I am going to go rest for a bit. My stomach and back muscles are really sore; I did not anticipate the aches and pains. I'm going to rest while I can! More later.
