'I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' no babies!'

The above line from "Gone with the Wind" aptly describes the depths of my knowledge about childbirth - there are no depths!
But that's starting to change.
This past Thursday, we attended the first of five sessions in a birthing class in the hospital where we expect our child will see its first light.
It's quite a mixed group of ages, education and life status but we all share one thing in common - somebody in our family is pregnant and it seems to help all the other barriers disappear.
I don't think I express enough how wonderfully blessed we are that the pregnancy is going well. There's certainly nothing to brag about - we haven't done anything to make it this way. I don't think I'm grateful enough that things are going well.
Time to check the re-paint on the baby's room as it continues to dry.
(Oh yeah - the existing paint didn't quite match the bedding.)
Bye for now!
