The number of fatalities from the tsunami steadily increases, to a magnitude that I can hardly imagine. The tragedy that is unfolding miles away from here is so horrible and unfair. So it makes me a bit uncomfortable to relay good news in the midst of such devastation, to feel such sunny relief when others are in so much pain, but I hope you'll understand how I can be this happy when I tell you that,
WE SAW A HEARTBEAT!
A heartbeat, a heartbeat, a heartbeat. A tiny, flickering, steady beacon of hope, trapped in a computer screen. That the little bundle of life we saw on the monitor this morning actually lives in my belly is hard to believe. What a strange and wonderful sight.
Dr. Charmin printed out an image of the sonogram, (which I pinned to the refrigerator as soon as I got home), and released me to my OB-GYN. In her words, "you've graduated." Can you believe it? I hardly can.
Oh, and as I'm sure you've figured out, we're having one. A singleton. A lovely, single fetus, snuggled away in my very own uterus. Who would have thunk it? A happy new year indeed.
Happy Graduation, Happy New Year, happy heartbeat. Congratulations to both of you, what a lovely lovely day - a bambino. Oh my!

I should judge[url=http://www.toryburch-outlet.us.com/]tory burch outlet[/url]they had[url=http://www.toryburch-outlet.us.com/]tory burch reva[/url] every means to produce gas, and present it as pure to the people of the city of Boston, as any works that I have ever been in.Are there [url=http://www.toryburch-outlet.us.com/]tory burch sale[/url]any improvements that you would make in their works ?No. I would if I had any change to make, take advantage of a clear space of [url=http://www.discounttoryburchoutlet.com/]tory burch outlet[/url]ground. These works have been added to as their business increased. We had the same serious difficulties on the North River side, [url=http://www.discounttoryburchoutlet.com/]tory burch flats[/url]and when we built the works on th Street side, we remodelled our whole works. Just so here in Boston. I would lay them out so that I could[url=http://www.discounttoryburchoutlet.com/]discount tory burch[/url]have more convenience, [url=http://www.juicycoutureoutletonline.us/]juicy couture tracksuits[/url]although I could not make them more efficient.Did you examine the apparatus for purification?I did, sir, and tested the gas while I was there. [url=http://www.juicycoutureoutletonline.us/]juicy couture handbags sale[/url]Did you test it hot?I never knew that to be done.You found it pure ?Very pure. I tested with sugar of lead, and if there had been any impurity [url=http://www.juicycoutureoutletonline.us/]juicy couture outlet online[/url]in a hundred feet of the gas, I should [url=http://www.juicycoutureoutletonline.us/]juicy couture handbags[/url]have detected it instantly.
