Getting our due

• This is Bennett's due date . . .  "Mentsch tracht, Gott lacht." - Yiddish Proverb    (Translation: Man plans, God laughs.)
• One amazing thing about babies is they can go from angry as hell one second to content as a cucumber the next second.  This begs the question, why do we hold onto things (grudges, etc.) as adults?  Why can't we just get over it like the wise (albeit premature) infant?  
• At three weeks, he's becoming much more alert and strong as heck.  He almost frog-kicked himself out of my arms today.
• He generally wakes up with a whimper or solid cry.  This afternoon he was all smiles as I lifted him out of his crib.  Now, that's an phenomenal feeling!  (Smile on my wayward son :)
• RIP Mr. Linkletter.  You were absolutely right, kids do say the darndest things (& craftmatic adjustable beds look amazing!).
