Isn't she beautiful?

Welcome to the world, Baby Pink! Perhaps we'll be able to clean up this mess by the time you start paying attention to such things.

In all seriousness, several good friends have had babies recently and I have to say how wonderful it is to see them so happy, so nurturing, and to see them be such wonderful mothers. I don't mean to get all sappy, but it gives me hope for the next generation. We may not be perfect mothers (as if such a creature ever really exists), but I think our children will always know that they have a place where they are safe and loved.
