Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before. ~Jacob A. Riis
I am 16 weeks pregnant, and feeling better than I did the first trimester, though I'm finding it increasingly difficult to sit at a desk. = / We find out whether we are having a boy or a girl in four weeks (on my birthday)! We can't wait!
Ana is a 60 lb. bundle of pure muscle. We love her and couldn't imagine our family without her! She's still sleeping in our bed, though she has begun asserting her independence a little more by venturing out onto the couch to sleep by herself for stints of the night.
When I have any major news, or relevant thought or inspiration, I will post again!
