Once, years ago, Benji said suddenly, “What’s in my head, what’s in my head?” And he rushed out of the room to find a pad and draw! Here is a Tabblo Ned did of the Littlest Boy drawing<\/a>, using pics from four years ago.<\/p>\n

And now, I give you what is in my head, and elsewhere…<\/p>\n

1) In my head: Excitement at the prospect of seeing Mom, Dad, and Laura.
2) In my heart: Happiness knowing that both Mom and Dad have plenty for Nat to do — I told him this and he smiled.
3) In my car CD changer: Melina’s dance mix, esp. this song<\/a>
4) In my belly: Hunger for pie and bread
5) In my dream: An invitation to a grand dinner in a castle-like home, and then the worry that I would have to reciprocate
6) In my imagination: The Special Olympics<\/a> book that needs to be written
7) In my navel: A simple barbell piercing, healing nicely
8) In my suitcase: A red skirt from Anthropologie that is almost exactly like my favorite one in nursery school.
9) In my gastank: Plenty of 89 octane fuel for the Amazon<\/a>
10) In my inbox: Lots of fun emails, and lots of spam
11) In my State House: An outgoing, horrible Governor who just used his 9C powers<\/a> to cut millions from the budget, including slashing help to stop homelessness and support services for the developmentally disabled and the mentally ill. Nice. Calls himself a man of God.
12) In my other second floor bedrooms: three slumbering beautiful boys.
13) In my bed: Ned, the kindest, calmest and wisest person I have ever known.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
