My trip with a Baby.

Hello DGH, great to see you here, Have you been back to SL? (I'll sent you a PM.)

Wonderful news about the pregnancy, only 14 years till you have your own teenage tearaway.

Everybody seems to remember me, I still get old friends sending me abusive e-mails.

I saw this on a postcard once:

Grandchildren: Your reward for not having murdered the teenagers

dear steven__ber,
I just found this thread. Read it from beginning to end. All I can say is wow. What a privilege it is to share in your story. Thank you. Thanks for sharing the struggle and the joy and the pain. When I read the part at the beach where you came nose to nose with the dreadful pain of those days in Thailand, I thought to myself that there was nothing coincidental about that timing. It was a specific time and place where you allowed yourself to face the horror and yet how wonderful that it was in Goa with Michelle and Maggie that you received such a sweet and gentle (as well as lively!) time of healing. I also understand your uneasiness with sharing such a deeply personal time in your life. All I can say is what others have already said- thank you for your courage and faith that it would be received for what it is- a gift. Let me add my encouragement to you to consider your writing as something to be pursued.

I plan to move to Hyderabad in the Fall with my two year old daughter to be with my fiance. Traveling 70 air conditioned miles to my parents' house in Minnesota gets long with her sometimes! Should be interesting...

Thank you for sharing your story!

I never thought to look at this thread as I dont have babies....

But WOW!!!! what a mind blowing read.

Most stories of other peoples holidays can be a tad boring at times but Steve, you have written that so well and the feelings come right at you as you read.

Wonderful...waiting for more here too.

OK, ok, thanks for all the replies, I'll try to carry on with the rest of the trip, but time is short, so there may be weeks between replies.
