my bestest friend from college-days-gone-by had a baby boy!!!!! yip yip yipeee!!! i knew he was a boy the whole time. i just certainly did. strange to think about her visiting way the hell back in september and being prego while her thoughtless friends sipped tequila shots that she paid for! that seems so long ago. but now - here it's march. and here's the babe. 3-3-12. i LOVE birthdays, i love initials, i love all of it. joel william ungrodt is on the planet and best be glad about it. it's not all bad. it's NOT. sure it's annoying sometimes when people cut you off or there aren't any coffee beans or people aren't nice to other people....but we gotta just let those things go and not cut people off ourselves, go to caribou for coffee today and smile and be nice to the barista. boom. done.
when friends and sisters become moms it's just too much. i mean honestly. how do they do it everyday? i mean every DAY. it looks fun. it does. i mean the kids are so cute and funny and brilliant at opening eyes without even trying. i think it is a good thing to try. but holy moses. how do i get there? the road is just littered with debris. just a mess. i can't see it. but this day isn't about me. not today.
this day is about the baby joel! oh BOY. now THERE is a name. his gramps died of als years ago. just a royal bummer that he didn't get to meet his sweet bajesus grankids. cause they are gonna ROCK IT. they have a lot of friends already who they don't even really KNOW. and they have a lot of friends that I don't know. boo. but that's reality. i just read heaven is for real and i buy it. i'm all in. i love the idea. love it. i hope everyone is watching. when i pick my nose or cuss or do something i shouldn'ta i don't love it - but mostly i do so i am going with the YES vote on heaven.
to the ungrodts! shout out friends. you are something special and stick with it. keep on keepin on. you populate the earth with these great loads of kiddos and this human race will right itself yet. no pressure, ungrodt kids! smooch.
