Curfew

They say that babies respond best to high contrasting colors. Hence the influx of black and white graphic images on baby toys these days.

So, I am sending out a postcard to Baby D.

Listen up, Baby D. If you think you are gonna stroll in this house one minute past January 15th and have everyone say “Ohh, so cute, look at the babyyy!!” you have another thing coming. January. 15th. Not the 16th. Not the 17th. Not “on my way, but running late…” January. 15th. We had a deal.

Actually, call if you’re gonna be early. I might be taking a walk. Or trying to have sex. Or stimulating my nipples or some other labor-inducing nonsense and that would just be weird for everyone.

Now. Do what you need to do. Have fun. Be home on Sunday. Got it?

Love, Mom

I really hope Baby D is on time for her/his own sake! My birthday is on Jan. 16, and lemme just tell you, is is NICE to almost always have a three-day weekend around your birthday!
