babies!
I think I'm going to be an auntie soon! My sister texted to say that she is in labor, and sounded a little breathless when I talked to her. Since I've known about the baby since mere hours (well, weeks) after conception, it's hard to believe that little Arabella will be a real, true baby soon!
In other news, not much to report. It was a weird, long spring season and I am happy to see it go. Alex and I go to Ireland in two weeks and I am really excited to go back. Last time I was there I was in a weird Deep South/Northern Ireland emotional place, reading The Heart is a Lonely Hunter in between visiting depressing community groups struggling to survive terrorist attacks. This trip should be a bit lighter, emotionally. We are going to see sheep! And cows! And it will be really nice to be in a totally different place for a while.
But before that happens, there will be a new baby in the family! I am so excited.
