An Announcement on Behalf of the Bookish Family

Posted by Bookish Wendy on Feb 02 2007 | General

Hi! Elisa here, writing to you on behalf of the Bookish Family…

   

Probably I don’t have to tell you WHY I’m writing instead of Our Bookish Girl.

   

Yep – at this very minute, she is pretty involved with the process of becoming Our Bookish Mama. The report so far is as good as we could hope for. Our Bookish Family arrived safely at Big Excellent Hospital earlier this morning and things seem to be progressing wonderfully. Wendy sounds terrific (it is just like her to call and say “Hi! I am in labor” in the same tone of voice that she would use to tell me she had tuna fish for lunch) and it sounds like Rob is doing just fine, too.

   

If you’ve been reading Wendy’s blog for any length of time, and if you’ve had the pleasure of meeting Wendy and Rob in real life, then I am sure you are as excited and thrilled about Baby SC’s imminent arrival as I am.

   

As individuals, and as a couple, Wendy and Rob are truly amazing human beings. They are kind and generous in a way that is increasingly rare. They are wonderful friends. I know that the love that they share, and the family they have created together will only be enriched by the addition of Baby Bookish.

   

Wendy & Rob: I love you both. I am so excited for this new phase of your life to begin. I have the utmost confidence that you will be wonderful and loving parents.

   

Baby SC: You have two terrific people for parents. I know they will love you more than anything, and I know they will do their best to be the best parents they can be.

   

I promise to keep you all up-to-date on Baby SC’s arrival – now, let’s all send some warm wishes Our Bookish Family’s way!

   

Love,

Elisa

    Baby SC: Welcome dear one! Don’t make fun of your mom when she is always knitting for you. Some day you will think it’s cool :-)

    I have to admit that my “ohmygoodness” was said outloud in a voice that was far from a calm “I had tunafish for lunch.” I imagine Wendy and Rob are doing wonderfully and my fingers are crossed that baby bookish makes a smooth and quick entry at the Big Excellent Hospital.

    (thanks for the update Elisa!)
