FirstOfMay

     I have some very happy news to report.  Rachel is pregnant.  She is due on August 24 and so far all the tests have been good (not sure if I'd call them positive or negative.)  She and Dave have been calling the baby FirstOfMay, which is a term for someone new to the circus.  The ultra sound yesterday actually had a picture of FirstOfMay sucking his/her thumb.  At the next ultra sound in April, they will probably find out FirstOfMay's sex.  We are all very happy.
