It's been nearly eight months since little Gabriel moved on. He touched us in ways that we will never be able to comprehend, even though outwardly he was never anything more than a screenful of scattered dots, defying the odds, fighting hard as hell, and breaking our hearts.
It was not long after that, my good friend KB had showered me with the wonderful news that he too was was about to enter the mystery of fatherhood (I don't think you ever emerge...) I got the great news on Thursday:
O M G _ I T _ A R R I V E D !
I had no idea his middle name would be Lea ;)
Something has stopped me from recording my life so far as we expect baby number 3. There's something bittersweet about the whole experience, but everything so far seems to be fine. Life's good, Little Unit is good, Lover Libby is getting better (LU3 is quite active apparently).
I think it's only now I've got the courage to be honest with myself and accept what has happened to us. Hopefully, we have emerged as stronger and better people (but still completely hopeless at catching up with anyone).
Right now though, we've a got another little bub coming along and I hope that he or she will be half as cool as the Little Unit. Being the product of Libby and myself it's almost a given!
Little Unit 3 will be available for inspection before Christmas, but not yet for sale... I am taking offers on Thomas tonight, though...
