Leonard Cohen

It turns out that Veronica shares a birthday with Leonard Cohen, which seems as lovely and righteous a thing as any. For that, and thinking of Amanda as a mother and what a full-time contract that is, I offer the follow lyrics from Mr. Cohen, and a picture that Rodney took yesterday at the hospital - amazing to think she hasn't even been alive for 24 hours yet! Whoooo, boy.



"Always" (Leonard Cohen)

The days may not be fair, always
Yeah but that's when I'll be there, always
Not for just a second, or a minute, or an hour,
Not for just the summer and the winter going sour,
But always, always, always

I'll be loving you, always
with a love that's true, always.
When the thing you've planned
needs my helping hand,
I will understand, I will, I will understand, always, always


Back to the hospital in a bit and hopefully some more close up pictures of the girls!
