Green & Black


I am deeply worried about Baby Bird’s lack of smiles. She bobs around with a crease in her forehead, as if she’s wondering, will I ever eat again? Will I ever see my Daddy again? And about this diaper…

Today at the doctor’s I expressed my concern that BB would be one of those babies who dyes her hair black and dresses in mourning by age two. The doctor assured me that this does not happen.
