Thanks, Lauren!

Today I received a lovely Christmas card from Ms. Lauren. She suggested that I do a blog soley about my pregnancy, and I don't know why, but the idea just got me all kinds of giddy! "Yes," I thought, "let us (I do use the imperial 'we' often now) tell the truth about this matter, and in so doing, warn--enlighten--people everywhere." So, as Bugs would sing, "Overture, curtain, lights! This is it! We'll hit the heights! And, oh, what heights we'll hit! On with the show, this is it!"
