¡ Bebé !

Bravo por Sarai!!

My sister's baby was born today!! I have not met him yet, but I was on the phone when he was born… He is so full of energy! He was amazingly loud for a newborn... and quite unusually, he was born with his eyes wide open. He seemed strikingly ready for the world. He obviously inherited his mother’s attractiveness, and he might have also inherited her intense personality. My Mom said he was big, thin but long; and that he had lots of very dark hair and very black eyes.

Mom was my eyes through the entire night. Dad called me first to tell me it would happen today, and then Mom kept me updated. It all went well, just as planned. Both Sarai and the baby are perfectly healthy. Sarai’s husband remained conscious…barely : ) . Mom and Dad, Abi, Misael, and the Cruz Nava family were present. A perfect night, from what I was told. They all sounded very happy -- very nervous, and some perhaps a little pained, but very, very happy. I am overwhelmed. Life is a beautifully complex thing…

It’s the last stretch… almost done. Grad school isn’t quite solved yet, which worries me some. But not much. I think I am more worried about my lack of worry than I am about the lack of an acceptable conclusion to all of this.
But on a happier note, Christmas with my family was great, as usual. My sister’s baby will soon be born. And I had a wonderful, very relaxing weekend. Had a productive day today, did most of my errands, and now I am ready for school.
The plan for the semester is to be constant and remain organized throughout the semester. I am sure I will have the inevitable moments of chaos, but I want to make the best effort to enjoy this semester. And I only enjoy myself when I am pleased with my performance. Wow… can’t believe I wrote that. But I do need some sense of accomplishment. Why, then, do I not worry about Grad school as much?
Well, in any case, I hope this entry will remind me not to torture myself and just get things done. Get it done, and absorb as much as possible in the process. Enjoy.
And Minino. Well, he’s the jazz in my life. It is impossible not to enjoy jazz.
