I was going to ask, also, have you had your second baby yet? It would now be redundant for you to have such a question put to you, yes?
Surely you know that I rejoice with you in the birth of your second child? Children are such blessings in our lives, are they not? Will you praise God with me for the joy and increased awareness and growth you have experienced by being a mother? Is our God wonderful, or what? Oh God, You are so wonderful and loving and gracious toward us, and bless us beyond what we deserve, filling and emptying our cups that we may experience the filling again, and know You as the Giver of Life and Source of all that is. . . how could we ever possibly repay You for all the loving kindness You bestow upon us?
Have you not heard? Oh, yes, and I must apologize, for I have not told many here and this is the first openly public announcement of this fact: I have very recently been diagnosed with colon cancer, and am so thankful that cancer is no longer a death sentence as it once was... indeed, have I not all the more reason to praise God, that I have peace in this midst of all this?
