This is a very special week at Broadsheet. It is Thanksgiving, yes, but it is also the week that our beloved colleague Lynn Harris welcomed a baby boy into the world. (At least, that's what her Facebook status update says.) Lynn -- who is the only reproductive rights expert we know who also taught comedy writing classes -- will be on leave for a bit while she helps her pup adjust to this brave new world, and while we will miss her dearly, we also look forward to the time she returns, when she will be wiser, stronger and (presumably) thinner.

As a small token of our affection for Lynn and her baby boy (and her husband, and her beautiful daughter), here is our favorite thing in the world. (Well, maybe our second favorite thing.) The world may be a rough place to navigate, but behold the beauty of the universe known as … puppy cam.
