some grace n’at
The baby’s Valentine box that he decorated at school:
It’s J Dilla-themed. (Pardon the homework that I was actively avoiding underneath there.) What’s especially cute is how hard he tried to recreate the Donuts album cover.
Please note the tilt of the head and the smile and the fact that his hat obscures his eyes.

The other night, we went to Chipotle for dinner. Since I was away last weekend and the Super Bowl was the weekend before, we haven’t gone grocery shopping in a number of weeks so we were really scrounging for food. The woman who waited on us labeled the baby’s burrito as “The baby’s,” which was pretty wild.
For those of you who might be new here, the baby is not actually a baby. He’s 7 years old. I started blogging when he was, in fact, a baby and the name sort of stuck. So how did this random woman at Chipotle know to call him that?
…
We watched I <3 Huckabee's the other night just because and I was reminded of how much I LOVE that movie. "What happens in a meadow at dusk?" ... I talked to my dad on the phone yesterday and he actually sounded pretty good. Chemo is a motherfucker. ... Five years ago yesterday, I asked the husband (known back then as "the boyfriend") to marry me. It was a (mostly) good idea.

I love The Baby. That Valentine’s box made my ovaries release an egg.

I really hope any future children are as awesome as the baby.
…and you definitely ran into an internet-fan of yours!

Chipotle lady is either psychic, or totally a stalker. Better look out your window, just in case.

If she brings burritos, I’m cool with that.

Maybe you’re pregnant, and the Chipotle lady is like a human pregnancy test, which she thought was a useless super power, but then she realized she could work at Chipotle and freak people out.
