Maria and I were walking in Williamstown, Mass.,  last week and I walked into a toy/women’s clothing store, pretty upscale. They had a beautiful furry sloth for $42 and I gulped and told Maria it had to go to Robin. I knew she would love it. She did love it, she is clinging to it as we speak, and Emma caught the moment.

I’ve still got it, I’m generally useless, but II can match people with books and kids with toys. Robin is making her maiden journey to Bedlam Farm the last weekend of May. We will be ready.
