Wow, Julia! Congrats. Everybody I know seems to be busy reproducing these
days. Guess you're going to end up ore of a homebody for awhiile.
An aside: Why not make a note of the day you knew and if the child
someday wants to celebrate his/her own existence, they could change
"birthdays." (Well conception date might be better but most people don't
know *exactly* unless it was an accident...) A birthday is the parent's
day; the birth of a child is a life passage event. Not so sure about
celebrating one's *own* birthday. It's mnore the parent's day. Oh, put my
foot in it didn't I? This is not time to get philosophical (slaps self on
forehead!) Lessee, I guess you'll have a summer kid. Me, I turn 36 Nov. 28
and am an old, old maid. I do wish I'd been born less close to Xmas
sometimes...
