my little pumpkin

So there's a girl in my life that I don't see nearly as often as I need to, but she is the cutest girl I know - my niece, Anna. This is Anna, eager for her brother or sister to be born soon, very soon (Ginny's due date is one week from today). This picture is with her in the one button cardigan that my brother Peter knitted for her, with the knitter himself. I would much rather have the self confidence Peter has in his knitting skills (including being known to knit at bars with a glass of whiskey) than be a self-conscious, I'll pretend to be cooler than I am, macho guy.
