Dear Mr. Bush,

We've fallen into a comfortable routine now--feeding, changing diapers, sleeping--and it fills the day more than one could imagine. It's hard to envision getting much more than that done, yet the iridescent light of reality and responsibility is beginning to seep in through the cracks. There is work that is not getting done, bills that are not getting paid, life that is not being lived. But for now, we'll block that light for as long as we can.
