Re: new member

Hi , it is so great to meet you! Glad you came out of lurkdom. I'm

really sorry about the loss of your little boy. Hey... great username...

is it from Proverbs 15:18 ( " Losing your temper causes a lot of trouble,

but staying calm settles arguments. " )? That's a great thing to remember.

The drastic change in your system could be what made you more prone to

the marvelous side effects of pregnancy... LOL... and your age could

have something to do with it as well, although I don't think you're

*that* old... ha ha

Where in Kentucky? I have cousins in Bardstown.
