Somehow the end of the year is here. And we're all here. And I still feel like placing this post in this space. So I shall. With gratitude and a certain wistful hope. For us all. But especially for these books, the people that walk them, their words, and their creators.

Eek! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! I'm thrilled. I bet Will is excited. I am so happy for you....which is odd because I'm pretty sure I would have been just as happy if it had been a boy, but for some reason now that I know it is a girl it seems like I'm more happy that it is!.....hmmmm, did that make sense....anyway.....YAAAAAY! I hope she looks just like you. I can't wait to hear ideas for girl names!
ReplyDeleteHope to see you in Malad in a couple of weeks, but if not, I am crashing on your couch for a night this summer! It's been way too long since I've seen you and been able to really chat.
Thanks, Martha! I'm still a bit amused by how surprised I was. Subconsciously I must have been expecting it to be a boy. Now I'm thinking of all the books I'm going to share with my girl.
ReplyDeleteLiz, it was the funniest thing. Will was dead certain it was a girl all along. When we found out it was he grinned at us and said, "I told you!"
Will and I are planning on being in Malad to see you. But you still have to crash on our couch this summer. Enough is enough!
Yippee! How exciting! When is the little girl due to make her arrival??? Oh dear, I'm going to have to make her some jewelry now! :) Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kristi! How are you feeling? She's due August 7th or thereabouts. Ooh, jewelry. We love jewelry!
ReplyDeleteAwwww...Congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteThree words: Hooray for girls!!! :)
