Tomorrow I Will Be In A Mitten

Or "The" Mitten, if you prefer. My cousin is having a baby. I'm going up for the baby shower. It is supposed to rain-turn-into-snow all day on my trek north. I am, however, really looking forward to seeing my family. I am excited to be sharing this first baby shower of my generation with all of the women (and maybe some men) in my family. It's a milestone. It's a little bittersweet. I'm not looking forward to the drive. But I can't wait to see them. All of them.
