Having successfully conspired with one of the nieces to conceal the fact of her visit until we surprised my mother over dinner, I can now mention that my eldest niece is visiting for ten days with a Teach For America job interview as a pale excuse. Thus I’ll be slightly busier than usual.

I’ll still be posting, of course, because the blog writing monkey is on my back but good. But I might be a little slower to answer your email until March 25.

I know certain of you are laughing at that last sentence. Have your fun.

   I’m jealous. Jealous of you for getting to spend time with Allie, and jealous of Allie for getting to spend time with Zeke. (and you guys too.)
