Congrats to Nafisa of Walsall, England, the winner of the April drawing. In May I will give away another audio book of SLANT. In addition, if you speak/read Spanish, Korean, or Polish, and would like a copy of SLANT in one of those languages, email me a little about yourself (was S/K/P your first language, are you just learning, do you teach the subject) and I’ll also draw a winner for each language at the end of the month.
And now, because I can’t resist, here is another picture of my son.
Binny takes turns napping on the guests at his baby shower.

hm … I thought a baby shower was supposed to be before the birth? How does it work? Both ways (before/after)?

When you adopt a newborn, it’s not for sure until 72 hours after the birth, so Bin’s shower had to be after. (Traditionally they’re before.) Bin’s was a kind of Meet The Baby tea party with pressies. Very sweet.

He is adorable!
I’d love another copy of SLANT, but I do not know Korean or Spanish. Do you know if there is any work being done on translating it into Japanese? I am majoring in Japanese, and have thought of translating my favorite novels into Japanese/English for practice/fun. c:

Yes, there is indeed a Japanese SLANT but at the moment I’ve forgotten the name of the publisher. I don’t have any copies of it in Japanese (yet) but I’ll let you know the publisher as soon as I have time to look it up.

I love your site Laura- Binny is just adorable and I can’t wait to meet him up close and personal…….David and I will simply have to take another trip to Portland!
It is getting harder and harder looking at pictures without getting to experience his essence!
Give him a hug and kiss from his Auntie-cuz!
love you very much,
Brenda
