What Went Right

1. Babies! I have heard from several friends in the last week and learned that either their babies (or nephews) have arrived healthy and safe into the world.
   
2. Because the Dalai Lama was visiting UB today, all classes were called off for a "day of learning." As a result my Dad called off his day of work and decided to babysit Lucy so my mom could take me to lunch. Thanks Dad and thanks Buddha!
   
3. Henry finished his massive Kindergarten project with minimal disagreement and actually put forth a reasonable amount of effort, plus it's done!
4. There was an article in yesterday's New York Times that Buffalo is ready to make a come back after 50 years of decline. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/18/nyregion/18buffalo.html?ex=1159243200&en=d051f29c920ca5aa&ei=5070&emc=eta1
