I'm currently sitting in the living room of my best friend Carol Johnson typing this. Justin graciously allowed me to take a long weekend to fly out to the Boston area to visit Carol, her husband Jeremy, and their 5-week old son Soren. It has been a ton of fun hanging out with their new family and watching them in their new roles of mom and dad.
After finally convincing them that I'm here to work, Jeremy let me take his shift for the night feeding. Specifically during that time while holding Soren in his dimly lit room and watching him look up at me and eat, I was affirmed that I'm really excited we'll be doing this again soon too!
Today is girls' day out (plus Soren) as Jeremy must work in his lab so we'll be doing the traditional errand running but anything I get to do with Carol is great. She and I have been best friends since 8th grade...before babies, husbands, and college. It is wonderful to share time with someone who knows me so well and for so long. Although it's a far way from Montana, it's still like I'm at home in many ways.
I head home on a very early flight tomorrow to make it home in time to celebrate Madeleine's 1-year birthday! I'm sure we'll have something to post for that. Hopefully it won't involve cake on my face.

We had such an awesome time with you :-) We're looking forward to hearing how Jr Cline is growing and how the 1st birthday was. Thanks for coming out to see us!
