ex machina


the eric update - day 720: i think this might be yet another lesson in enjoying the moment.

as odin earnestly enjoyed breathing deeply through his nose to smeeeeeeellllllll the wondrous and impossibly fresh chopped basil and garlic which were slowly in the process of being transformed into pesto ( sans pine nuts because, well, why ruin a perfectly good recipe with a pine nut :-) ), who could have imagined that mere minutes later the nearly rockwellian scene would quickly devolve from an animated discussion about the importance of sharing and taking turns whisking in olive oil and parmesan cheese into a full blown class A tantrum when one of us couldn't get his way.

Sorry to hear about your tantrum. Hopefully Odin was able to calm you down without too long of a time-out. ;)

The pesto sounds mouth-watering though!

"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
