It is by far the most stimulating and rewarding work I have ever done, this baby thing. And now that I'm not in pain all the time, it's even better. lniamh's journal is there to tell you so.
And, having dipped into her journal, I think of you replying unnervingly to someone who has insulted your work with "I'm a full-time mother and a poet. You know, like Sylvia Plath." Fix them with a beady eye and Do Not Smile.
(You don't think being isolated on a farm with a baby is making me the least bit anti-social, do you?)
