1. For the first time this year, it's warm enough to walk around the flat in bare feet in the early morning.
2. We grab a cup of coffee and a sit in the sun -- the home-worker and the mother with a new baby.
3. Catherine and I talk on the phone. She says that my goddaughter is reading now: "You know the little letter you wrote in her birthday card? She read most of that." Ellie has been identifying letters since she was tiny, so I've always taken care to print clearly in her cards so she can do just that -- but to hear that she's reading tickled me very much.
