I just came from the midnight premiere of ‘Sex and the City’ – fair warning to all, if you want to watch it, you may not want to read further. But I’ll save the spoilers for after this note:
It may have just been our viewing, or a malfunction on our theater’s end, or that we got a crappy copy – but the version I saw had boom microphones a plenty floating above the actors. It was really bad. It was distracting – the entire theater was laughing over it for an extended period of time. It began less than halfway through the movie and kept happening until the end. It looked like we were watching outtakes on the DVD or something. I went out to talk to the theater staff twice to tell them something was wrong with the picture. If they were simply showing the film too low on the screen and we weren’t supposed to see that stuff, then I hope they fix the problem before the gala screening later tonight.
Okay. Enough about that. Now stop reading if you’re going to watch it. Or, go watch it, then read the following and tell me what you thought.

I took these on her 7-month birthday, May 3. The time has just flown by. I look at pictures of her from October and I’m just amazed at how much she’s grown – in size, personality and ability. She started crawling a few weeks ago and now she’s a pro, scrambling across the floor in the blink of an eye to pull herself up and touch the television. We race after her to make sure she doesn’t fall over. I knew it was going to happen, but knowing and experiencing are two different animals.
She is the sun – our lives revolve around her, we gravitate towards her, hang in her orbit and bask in the warmth of her gummy grins.
And it’s true. I didn’t know being a mommy meant my entire being would become wrapped up in another’s well being and happiness. But it has. I look at her and I’m so grateful she doesn’t have all the allergies and eczema I had when I was an infant. We’ve been very lucky so far. Perhaps blessed is a better word. She may have allergies that we’ve yet to encounter – and I’m very careful about introducing new foods just in case that’s so – but so far Zoey is doing wonderfully. She’s healthy and happy, and I couldn’t ask for anything more.
Anyway, enough sentimentality. If you’d like to drop Zoey a line that she may read in the future, you can email her. I set her up an address at zoey.imara (at) gmail (dot) com and I write her little notes from time to time. I got the idea from some mommy site, and I thought it was pretty neat.
