The family is growing

How quickly life can change.

About three months ago we realised that we had been party to a process that will result in the presence of another human being in the world.

From our family of four, Kim, James, Elise (almost 11) and Hope (8) we will soon be five - July 27th is the due date.

If the special place where it was conceived has any influence on the spirit of the child who is still growing in Kim's belly, parenting this one will be an especially fun ride.

We don't know if it's a boy or a girl (only that there is only one - whew!) and we're playing with name possibilities. What a sense of responsibility this brings, though we agree we won't be rushing to name it.
