we made it through the first trimester. as you can see from our ticker for the wee nipper, we are almost two weeks into our second trimester. the first was pretty awful for karen. she was sick most of the time. we are hoping it gets better.
i wrote a song in memorial of those three months. enjoy.
trimester one
one day she woke up, rolled over; everything was different
she felt it soon after - beginning and end of all the laughter
she tells me it hurts her. she'd rather be doing anything
anything, anything but this. she cannot hide or try to run away now
she wakes up, rolls over; eats crackers in hope she'll have a good day
instead she feels nauseous. i hold her, she cries i cannot take this
she tells me it hurts her. she'd rather be doing anything
anything, anything but this. she cannot hide or try to run away now
inside her miracle was taking over
a new lifeform was growing and taking over
together we'll face this. we're smiling and hoping it gets better
there's good days and bad days, but all days are happier in some ways
we'll soon be a family. we wouldn't want anything
anything, anything but this. we cannot hide or try to run away now
inside her miracle has taken over
a new lifeform is growing and taking over

One thing I love about Brando - always reality. Okay, two - he also has a very nice poetic mind. I hope you pass that along. And get your wife more Ritz!
What a neat way to share about what you and your wife are going through. I love it! I'll be thinking and praying for ya's in the months to come.
You have a way with words...very nice. Beautiful picture, Karen. We just missed the introduction of the bump in Feb- i"m dissappointed. Pictures will do. :-) 2nd Trimester Already- WOW!
Please keep us posted about Grandma. It's hard being so far away.
LOVED it! A realistic expression of what is happening. I love the poetry, I love the honesty.
