a trying day

Daddy had a difficult day yesterday. To put it in literary terms:
Mr Hyde (Elijah awake) – loud, squirmy, cranky, and manifestly unhelpful in attaining the quiet zen day full of opportunities for restful reflection that Daddy wanted.
Dr Jekyll (Elijah asleep) – a cute little sleeping cherub around 7 p.m. Zen still elusive.

To our wonder and amazement, the new day revealed a new leap in his development. He (once again) seemed bigger, and passed his keys from one hand to another while lying on the bed this morning like it was no big deal! (It's not, but we're so easily amused: we often pass keys from one hand to the other in front of each other for hours on end; never a dull moment!)
