Happy Hanukkah!

...Rachel decided to surprise us yesterday with an early Hanukkah gift. I had come home late after exercising, and Drew was reading her some books. "Let's go say hi to mama!" I heard him say.

Obama's Nobel speech was playing loudly on the radio, and I thought Drew was referring to something in the speech when he exclaimed, all of a sudden, "Did you HEAR that?"

Then he brought her in to the living room, snuggled up in his arms. She looked at me, gave a shy smile and said softly, "HI!"

"HI?" "HI!"

"Uh, hi, honey," I said weakly.

"It's all downhill tonight from here," I told Drew.
