It's been a bittersweet holiday season so far. Maryanne and I have been looking forward to the birth of our first child, a daughter, which should be arriving in the middle of January. The entire family is very excited, as are many of our friends. While I was apprehensive at first, the reality has settled in, and I'm finding myself feeling excited at times, as well.
However, on Friday, December 23, we found out that my paternal grandmother had passed away. The timing was very unfortunate. Not only did it put a blemish on the holiday season, but Maryanne will be unable to attend the funeral services. She's too close to her due date to travel that far. She feels very sad that she won't be able to attend.
Mood: Melancholy
