WTF? Or, Goodbye, Miss L
I’m bewildered and upset right now.
About an hour ago, I checked my email, and found an astonishing message from Noah’s school. In a nutshell, it said that Ms L, the lead teacher in Noah’s classroom, would not be coming back to work there any more.
All the details that the email provided were:

Noah Update, 6 Months

Two Delicious Nights
I don’t want to jinx it, but I think maybe possibly I have my good-sleeping, sweet baby back.
(Noah, of course we love you even when you are a crabby, tired, puddle of drool, who wakes up every 3-4 hours. But we like it better when you are cheerful, sweet, and sleeping through the night.)

6 Months!
Dear Noah,
You’re 6 months old today. It’s hard to believe that it’s been half a year since you were born. It seems like just a couple of weeks have passed.
Here are some birthday pictures of you, looking superfashionable in your new kicks from Jen. Thanks, Jen!
We can’t believe how big you’ve grown, or all the […]
