Wonderful decade

Ten years ago today Kara called me at work to ask if she could buy a treadmill. She said something about really needing it now to stay in shape over the next eight months. It took me a minute to catch on that she was expecting, but mostly because I didn’t know how to adequately process information that was so stunningly good. Another baby? What joy. Ten years later I'm still trying to assimilate the happy news. She means so much to me. I cannot even imagine life without her.
