AH, thanks so much for your post and support. Jeanette, it is a girl. We do know this much. I'm thrilled. And yes, buying doll clothes (as I call it) is great fun. I helped my brother paint the nursery which made me feel great, too.
Well, I just found out that the other job I'd been waiting to hear about (not the "big" one I am truly hoping to get offered) was given to someone else. I'd been waiting to hear about this other one for 3 months; they finally made a choice. Not me. Ok, God...what is going on here?! In need of good news soon. If not, I'm going to go on a serious chocolate binge. Yikes.
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
It's times like these when I'm glad Hershey, PA is only 90 minutes from home. Taking the Chocolate tour that drops you off in the greatest candy store this side of Willy Wonka is a beautiful thing.
"I made the wall of shadow draw back, beyond desire and act, I walked on.
Oh flesh, my own flesh, woman whom I loved and lost, I summon you in the moist hour, I raise my song to you."
