    Congratulations!!!! Can’t wait to hear the birth story….I’ve been lurking on here for quite some time, obviously without comment, but have been thinking about your family a lot. I hope you’re well. AND, I believe that giving birth, if not all the other trials and tribulations of the past few months, affords you carte blanche in the asshole department, so you go girl!

    A) Congratulations!

    2) I love the part about ‘Mom’s still an asshole.’ That’s the main reason I follow your blog. The humor.

    PS Love the name. Also my daughter’s middle name, borrowed from her great great grandmother. I’m so glad it’s made a comeback. (And a little sad for some little girls who get ugly old-fashioned names. Come ON people… have you considered Amelia? Geez.)
