St. Patty's

Today was one of those PERFECT days. After a REALLY long winter, today finally felt like spring; it was an amazingly sunny and 62 degree kinda day. What made this day the best was that I had the day off in these perfect conditions. That's right, March 17th is not only St. Patrick's Day, but it is also Evacuation Day in Suffolk County (where I work). The holiday commemorates the evacuation of British forces from the city of Boston following the Siege of Boston, early in the American Revolutionary War.

Berkeley and I slept in until 8:00 a.m., and had a fun morning together before getting ready to head to Brandeis University to have lunch with C. Then we went to show Berkeley off to his freshman writing class; as we left I heard one of the girls say, "OMG, you seriously have the cutest kid ever." I have to agree with her. We had some R and R when we got home and then headed to a play group with some friends from church. Berke loved playing with his BFF Lily on the grass and swinging in the swing. We also chatted with our neighbors Charlotte and Agnus who just cant get enough of our little guy and his adorable smile.

It was really great to spend the day with my little one. He is such a joy and I love being his mom. I hope everyone else had sunshine in their days and were able to celebrate the luck of the Irish.

Every time I see a picture of Berk, I can't help but think he's just finished writing something, or composing something, or doing some huge math equation. He's adorable and look sooooo SMART! I love him and can't wait to see him this summer!

Lily really enjoys your blog. Only because all the pictures are of Gerky and Doggy! :) Can't blame her.
