lucky.

penny has been doing her best to keep me talking so she doesn't have to go to sleep, and it works pretty well most of the time.  tonight, i was on my way to the door when she told me "michaela has a bracelet with a special signal (ed. she meant symbol) on it that means love in hebrew.  shira has a watch.  and elias also has a watch.  but no one else's mama checks on them.  just me.  i guess i'm pretty lucky."

i'm pretty lucky too.
