I wanted to watch Obama’s speech tonight, really I did.  But I’m not smart enough these days to follow political speechifying.  (Chronic sleep deprivation? Let’s call it that.)  Made it all of 5 minutes before I was forced to click over to the America’s Next Top Model premiere.  Because, really, could a presidential speech match dialogue like “My nickname as a child was Bloody Eyeball”?  Or the pure brilliance of a beautiful girl giving instructions on how to castrate farm animals?

Probably not the best choice, as it is becoming apparent that I watch too much reality TV already.  Case in point: when I took this shot of Vera last week, my first thought was “She’s smiling with her eyes.  Tyra would be so proud!”

  1. That kidlet of yours is delightful! And, she totally IS smiling with her eyes! (Don’t tell anyone, but I opted for a rerun of Top Chef rather than the speech. Shhh!)

  2. Oh, she is absolutely gorgeous. Just beautiful! And well, despite living in DC, being a political science major in undergrad, now getting a Ph.D. in oncology and dealing with healthcare and patients who struggle with treatment affordability on a regular basis, having a husband who is a doctor and could be very much impacted by the whole thing… well…. I watched the speech until 9pm and then switched to Glee.What, it was a long day in the lab and my brain was ready to be shut off for the night.

  3. Elsa is a little squirt!

  4. She’s absolutely adorable! I can’t wait when it’s time to make our own hapa baby ;)

  5. Thanks for the compliments everyone!Yeah, Sophia, we’re pretty fond of the cute hapa babies…. ;)
