sleepy do


he's getting pretty good at putting himself to sleep. so good, in fact, that there are few things that'll keep him from drifting off when he really wants to zonk. he tries here to convince me that he's awake, but he just can't summon up the energy to keep up the act. it's kinda how i feel.
he's had a few longish naps today because i don't have the heart or umph to keep him up the way i usually do. i hope he has mercy and still sleeps a good long while tonight.
so did i tell you that bono sent us an autographed children's book? and inside it said, "John Tayloe, Welcome to Earth. There's a lot of work to be done. All the best, BONO." he dated it and drew a little bono face (i know it's a bono face because it's wearing sunglasses).
that should be an interesting thank you note, dontcha think?
tayloe the dad and i were both touched and felt pretty special, but now i'm stumped on the acknowledgement.
I get this far:
Dear Bono,
and then i just seems too weird. i know it'll get to him and i know it's the right thing to do, i'm just not sure really what to say except "hey man, thanks," but that doesn't come anywhere near filling up the white space on the card.
i guess i'll just say thanks and we'll be sure to let t2 know he's to save the world when he's old enough and i admire the work he's doing. i need to practice my penmanship so all of this is ledgable. i have terrible handwriting.
aaaaahhhh, the gremlin has awoken from his very short nap. and rightly so - it's nearly happy hour.

Oh! I miss him already! It was fine for a day or two, but now I REALLY miss his big smiles and our flying time. I had a great trip, thanks for your sweet blog too. jamie loves his Ferragamo shoes via the Santa Monica Salvation Army- got 'em shined with new laces and he looks like a cool, hip, organic Carolina logistics consultant. You're the bomb, thanks for a great time!
