Jill, official older daughter of NewMexiKen, reports:
There was a time, a gentler time, when, if a woman was…expecting…she would retire to her country home and quietly await the arrival of the child, keeping the news from all but closest family, and never discussing it in mixed company.
Now, when the baseball coach sends an e-mail asking who can come to practice tonight, the whole e-mail list gets this in response:
“We cannot confirm whether [our son] will be able to attend practice this evening or not. I’m dilated 4 cm and might be having this baby at any minute!”
