Five years ago today…

Posted By: Peter DavidPosted On:

It was snowing fiercely. I was unaware of it because I was in a small birthing room with Caroline, offering what little help I could while Kathleen labored (never a more apt use of the term, no matter what union leaders may think) to bring Caroline into the world.

Her recollections on her blog will, I’m sure, make far more compelling reading than anything I have to say on the subject. All I’ll say is Happy Birthday, Caroline, and nice job, Kath.

  2. A happy birthday to Caroline and a happy Happy Hanukka to you and your whole meshpuka, Peter!

  11. Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday! May your life be full of fun snow day birthdays! And the rest of the days in between shouldn’t be too bad either!

    (Anybody else seeing that X-Men issue where Madeline and Scott are intro-ing the baby to everyone and Hank says something about an odd collection of godparents?)

  13. I still have last year’s X-Factor in my head.
    “Caroline, how old are you?”
    “Caroline!”
    Well, hope you guys gave her a good party. Happy Hanukka and all that jazz.

  15. Happy happy happy happy happy.

    At least there’s *something* this week to be happy for; i remember sitting at the typewriter one December evening, the day after Pearl Harbor Day, working on an apazine, trying to express my emotions at just having come from the funeral parlour after my grandfather’s viewing – and then i looked up at the TV that was showing the AP Newswire scroll and saw that John Lennon had just been shot…

  16. Happy Birthday to Caroline!

    (Katherine will never be able to enjoy a snow day birthday, unless we move to Australia. Then again, she’ll never have school on her birthday at all!)
