Sorry to have been scarce around these parts of late. As many of you may have known, I was due to give birth in September. As it so happens, the baby (Jason Stallings Psaropoulos) had other plans, and came early, on August 2nd, so as not to miss the Olympics. I gave birth at a maternity hospital on Muses Street (Odos Mouson).

Though a premie (born at 33 weeks), he is thriving and doing quite well, and should be home from the hospital tomorrow. I imagine I'll be even scarcer after that, for many weeks if not months to come. Thanks for your many kind wishes. I'll try to be in touch when I can.

Alicia

Conrats Mom.
I suspect you'll have more time for Erato than you think at first since newborns sleep 17+ hours a day and you can't go anywhere.


How about some pictures?

Oh wow! Syncrareteria! New Muse indeed--consider this an offering of thanks to a propitious Eileithuia, on behalf of all of us here. I'll be right back with the goat.

No, wait....we ROCK them, dont we? Back and forth back and forth back and forth........I STILL have that "mother sway" when standing in long lines or otherwise forced to stand still for any period of time longer than 32 seconds....and my "baby" is 21!!!!!
Everyone who said they grow up fast is right....Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy....soon enough YOUR Jason will be right up there with MY Jason....and presenting you with your first grandchild.
