A Happy Year, Indeed

Happy New Year, Dear Readers
I look forward to the many changes the new year will bring. I continue to work diligently on my book. Not quite ready for a send out yet, for those who have volunteered for my reading group. I'm excited about the possibilities this book brings. I just booked my first speaking gig for 2008 (my agent negotiated a very lucrative deal)! I also sent an article to The Birth Project, a Michigan publication. This year will also mark the second anniversary of this blog. Whodda thunk it? My work in this world is beginning to take shape at last. I'm more excited about birth than ever, and the possibility of delivering my message to those who desperately need to hear it (women and care providers alike) makes me feel vibrant and alive.
To think, an annoying an inconvenient pregnancy at the grand old age of 45 has initiated all this. As an extra bonus, we have a 1 year old toddler who makes a mess of everything in his line of sight, and also just happens to be the light of our lives.
Maybe God knows what she's doing after all.
Peace to you all in the coming year.
