It’s Friday. That’s a good reason to smile.

Yesterday it was a year ago we moved into our house. Man that was a rough day. But hey we got a story out of it. I find I experience a lot of things and most of the time I just walk away with a story. Sometimes a lesson learned.

I’m officially at the halfway mark of the pregnancy. There is a misconception that pregnancy is 9 months. It’s actually 10. A normal pregnancy is 40 weeks. I’m at week 20.

I was surprised that news of the tragedy in Bailey, CO made the news in Canada (while it was happening). It’s a very upsetting thing, and I don’t have any explanation for why sick people do these things. I have a lot of friends who are teachers, I have friends who have kids in school. All I can do is pray that all schools can be safe places.

On a lighter note, I’ve had I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’ by the Scissor Sisters playing over and over and over in my head. For two days straight. It’s really catchy, and I don’t even like the Scissor Sisters.

I’m very excited at the idea that Lexi might come to visit. The plan (before we got pregnant) was for the 3 honorary Kroliks to meet up with some number of Kroliks in NYC, March ’07 to help Lexi get settled at school. Obviously not as easy to do with a newborn in tow. But now I may just get time with Lexi after all. Nothing is in stone yet, so we’ll see. I hope, I hope.

I guess I’ll close with a quote from Gattaca.
Vincent: I’ll never understand what possessed my mother to put her faith in God’s hands, rather than her local geneticist.
