The City

Someday, probably soon, hopping the train into the city won't feel like a big deal.  It'll be old hat, no big shakes.  But today?  Today was a big deal.  And I'm proud of us.  I managed not to miss the train, despite reading the schedule backwards.  I managed to get all three of us over "the gap" without dropping a toddler. And I managed to have a great time meeting up with Sara, Baby "Cai," and Paul (who got some serious hugs.)  All in all a very successful city trip.  I remember my first time taking the subway after I moved to New York.  I got on, rode to Washington Square Park, got off, read a book for an hour on a bench, got back on the train, and went home.  And it was exhilarating.  Today felt the same way.

Reunited.
