There have been a handful of beautiful little ones that have joined the world throughout the last few months, so please join me in welcoming: Manav, Maya Akiva, Daisy Ellender, Abigail Anne and John Tayton! I wish all of their parents (my amazing friends) much energy, patience and love for all the joys and challenges ahead.

Update (2/23/08): And welcome to Audrey Jane, the new niece of a good friend, born on Valentine’s Day!
