10/15/2008: Let's talk babies and daffodils.

We're pregnant, and I'm overjoyed. I don't know about Jenny, but yesterday was one of my best days of being pregnant yet. We lounged around the house and basked in the bright, perfect elegance of our life to come. We daydreamed about how lovely our child would be. Isn’t it going to be great to be a parent? “Yes, indeed! Yes, indeed!” We exclaimed, over and over, in a trance-like state, nearly reaching ecstatic tears in our energetic and abundant happiness . . . to know that this little, harmless creature depends on you to meet its every need? How I can’t wait for him/her to see the light of day, this fair and sunny world with so much wonder and glee!
