Excuse the interruption

I interrupt these half dozen or so blog posts about Thanksgiving to bring you this exciting news:

I successfully left Mary in the childcare room at the Y today!  Yipppeee!  

I have been hoping/trying to do this for the past year.  Mary is a big boob without her mom or dad.  And her piercing, high-pitched hysterical wail doesn't help matters.

But I think she is now old enough to be intoxicated by toys, toys, toys.  So many Elmos, baby dolls, and Cozy Coupes--she just couldn't help herself.  The ladies who work there reported that she was "very independent, for one so young" and "into everything."  That's our Mary.

What a wonderful development.  The future looks very bright, indeed.
