I am sooooo happy - How on earth could I be otherwise?!

Re: Its a girl!!!!
Thank you! Thank you fede so much. Thats really sweet of you.
Liberation is the inevitable fruit of the path and is bound to blossom forth when there is steady and persistent practice. The only requirements for reaching the final goal are two: to start and to continue. If these requirements are met there is no doubt the goal will be attained. This is the Dhamma, the undeviating law.

Excellent! Sadhu!
Congratulations!
What a great name! The best part about that name is that it is Buddhist (Maha-Maya-devi, Buddha's mother) and still very Western and modern.

Hello bbb,
CONGRATULATIONS To the happy parents-to-be!
Does this mean you will turn into Bodom_Good_Boy now? - after all you have to set the example for the precious little bundle arriving in June.

But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion …

Congrats again Bodum "Good" Boy!

Re: Its a girl!!!!
Wonderful news!!! Congrats Is this your first? (Sorry if you already answered this.. I zipped thru the comments.) I have two boys, and I miss that 'girl enery' (being the only girl in the house). I'm very happy for you and your wife.
