Congratulations! YAY BABY!!!
Your life, as you have known it, is over. You are now in the “parent club”, and you are in for a wild ride, the likes of which you have never experienced. The highs are amazing – just wait until the first time you hear “mama” come from your child’s lips – but the lows are terrifying (and the worst I’ve dealt with is a broken arm and a meningitis scare; Lord knows there are parents out there that have gone through MUCH worse). There’s nothing as scary as your child with a high temperature; there’s nothing quite as amazing as watching your child grow.
And whatever you do, try not to blink too much – you’ll miss things. My kids were babies last week (or so it seems); now I’ve got one about to go to middle school and my youngest about to hit double digits…
Congrats, Lissa. You and Mike are going to LOVE being parents! Just watch out for beets and what they can do… 😉

Let me be the last person to congratulate you. I really have to stay more current on my blog reading.
Seriously, I’m incredibly happy that you and Mike are now parents and that all is well with Baby Kitty.
With all those hours of labor, you surely earned your reward.
Congratulations.
