One in five pregnancies end in miscarriages and unfortunately I got to experience this first hand. Chris and I were quite upset but we’re slowly coming to terms with this. A number of my friends have had bad pregnancies only to go on and have beautiful healthy kids later on.

It will take a few months to recover, but we shall try again when the time is right. Even though this whole thing didn’t end right, I really appreciated all the congratulations and well-wishing notes we got from all of you. It is great to know that our friends are excited for us and that some even think we’ll be cool parents. I quite hope that we will indeed. When we get around to it, if nothing else, this weekend’s events will make it so much more precious.
