Presidio Heights

The neighborhood of Presidio Heights is just north of Laurel Heights, just south of the Presidio, and a stone's throw from Lower Pacific Heights. The average home price, among homes sold this month, was 1.8 million dollars. The shopping district on Sacramento Street includes at least three baby and children's stores, a "body wrap" shop, an antique dealer, an imported rug dealer and at least two psychologist's offices. The streets are absolutely crawling with babies. And moms. And nannies.

But the Presidio Heights I'll remember is the place where my son sat in a Jumperoo "Precious Planet," in one of the baby stores, and the only thing he wanted to do is play with the little spinning device on the front. He did so, with a serious look on his face, for about three minutes. He did not jump. I'm sort of proud of him for not jumping.
