I Wonder If He Has Those Naked-On-the-First-Day-of-School Dreams?

Tomorrow is Quinn’s first day at his new school. Thor and I actually got a jumpstart by attending their big annual auction fundraiser on Friday night. The welcome we received from the other parents from Quinn’s class was incredibly warm and quite surprising. And it was a fun party to boot. We heard from several parents that their kids were prepped and excited for Quinn’s arrival and had been working on Welcome cards for him. We’ve been prepping Quinn for his first day, but it hadn’t occurred to me that his class would be getting prepped as well. I was really touched.

We took him out to get a new lunch box today. The “Thomas the Tank” one caught his eye first but we managed to distract him with a retro mars landing one instead. Is it wrong to desire good taste for your child? Wait, don’t answer that. Besides it was bigger and will fit his sippy cup better.

He was so excited when he went to bed tonight. Heck, I’m excited. I feel like it’s my first day.

Raising a Kid
I'm Quinn's mom. He's basically The Cutest Kid in the Known Universe. Ok, I know, your kid's cute too, but this one's mine. He was born in March of 2002 and came home from the hospital to a shower of Cherry Blossoms.

Founding Companies
In January 2007 Thor & I joined forces with Lane Becker of Adpative Path to found Get Satisfaction. Previous to Get Satisfaction I was a founding partner of Rubyred Labs, a design driven Internet product development firm where we made cool stuff and enjoyed breakfast, particularly when it involved cereal, coffee and grapefruit. Jonathan Grubb, our RRL partner defected to L.A. to shack up with and marry the awesome Kestrin.

Keeping the Peace
All this has left me craving a nap, but I still somehow manage to find time to travel with my brilliant and adorable husband (and sometimes my friends), experiment in the kitchen, and hit the town with my gorgeous, smart, single gal pals who are in search of kind, eligible men (I know you're out there...)
