Congratulations, Cara!

Scroll down a bit--and see the happy news about Cara's new baby--just yesterday! What thrilling times those are when one is addng to their family. I so loved the years when we had our little ones coming--three who got to come home--over the years. What an unbelievable treasure. I'm so happy for Cara and her family!

Writers sometimes talk about about how writing a book is like having a baby--all those months of hard work, and struggle, and then comes the joy of seeing that book on the bookstore shelves. But really, the two events aren't even in the same ballpark. What could be more thrilling than bringing home that little blanket-wrapped bundle that hold so much wonder and excitement, so many possibilities? Mega-congratulations to Cara. I hope we'll get to see some pictures here on the blog sometime soon!
