The first class I took when I matriculated to the University of California at Los Angeles was an ancient art history class. The one thing I remember from that class is that omphalos means navel in Greek (I have learned a few more Greek words from our friend, George, since then). Our John has a lovely omphalos, don't you think?The remnants of his umbilical chord looked like it was ready to fall off since last Thursday. It had the looks of a little raisin. Every time I was tempted to pick it off, Maureen would forbid it. My mother was worried and thought it looked infected the other day. I think this news will greatly please her.
