You ever spend time with people who are just beyond your comfort zone? Do you ever feel exhausted and thrilled by them? I certainly do. This weekend, B and I were to meet his PI for a nice hike and a visit to a tortillaria, well we arrived at our meeting spot and were greeted with "Change in plans, guys... my wife had our baby last night." So we walked up to the hospital to be with them in this first new chapter of their lives. I felt like I was intruding the whole time we were there, but they insisted that we stay to be a part of everything. What an amazing experience to have had. We were there to witness the first meeting of their 2-year-old daughter and their barely-out-of-the-box son. What a wonderful way to spend the day!

Yesterday, B convinced me to run the "Race for the Cure" event. I am exhausted. I can barely keep my eyes open this afternoon. I also was able to help at the "One book Arizona Kids" event at the Children's Museum. Polly Horvath, author of "Everything on a Waffle" was there doing a reading and taking questions from the kids. Very fun event.
