ELS was born in March 2009 and is now a two-and-a-half year old about to start the first week of preschool and welcome home a baby sister. We didn't hold much good baby stuff back for a future CD, using favorite lullabies from the Pogues and Tom Petty and making the not-so-bold prediction that she would stay up late and make a mess. She did.
