casual thoughts and reflections upon life and the Creator whose idea it was in the first place

Yes, it's with me!

It's fair to say that since going public with our second pregnancy we've had a variety of responses. It would seem that already Joshua's brother or sister are already experiencing 'sloppy seconds'.

While Joshua's conception was greeted with much trumpeting and appropriate excitement, his sibling's imminent arrival seems to be slightly less miraculous - and perhpas not so newsworthy?!

In fact when sharing the news with some folk you'd be forgiven for thinking we were telling them about the latest 2 for 1 bargains at the supermarket or that we'd found a fiver in the street!! I mean people are pleased for us, but 'what's the fuss'?!

Still not everyone's response is so muted. And in stark contrast my friends at youth club had just one question... 'your wife is pregnant? Is it with you?!'

Friendly banter, or a sign of the times?
