does anyone know of any intellectual, academic, novelist, or anyone else who has published a book who has included in their acknowledgments section (or anywhere else in writing) thanks to a nanny (or anyone else) for taking care of their children while they wrote the book?

i want to have more children but the prospect of another pregnancy and newborn to nurse would, i think, feel less daunting if i had friends who weren't afraid to embrace me warmly, stroke my back, touch my hands and face

three-year-old made up a song he said was called "love is personal" and the words were: love is here, love is here, love is near, love is everywhere, love is nowhere, love is anywhere, love is in the window of the maze, a laze, a haze (here it trailed off into sing-song babble)

mixed feelings when reviews for oil pastels and colored pencils describe them as "creamy" or "buttery" when using them, because it's appealing but kinda makes me want to eat oil pastels and colored pencils

rewatched lynch's elephant man and it's a good film, but imagine a film that is less about ill treatment and exploitation and more about merrick as a man saving wages, developing craftsmanship with his particular challenges, with bright colorful scenes of picking wildflowers

sometimes my baby rolls around in his sleep and wakes himself up in the middle of the night with it, then sits up with a groggy wobble and starts laughing and chattering excitedly because it's good to be awake, where does an excessively happy baby fit in baby sleep discourse

all babies after the first benefit from hearing singing and chatting with the older children
weird to realize that babies in utero probably hear far less music & conversations than they used to if you work from home or wear headphones often, huge swaths of the day are silent for them
