For the Bart

"I'm getting bigger every day!" Bart Tulula wrote me.

So, Bart, this post is for you, as you get ready to breed.

I can't believe, that in just a few months, there will be Li'l Barts! Enjoy the "getting bigger" (and just call it 'getting glowing-er'), after all, one only gets a few months of it in a lifetime. Unless, of course, you guys are planning a dozen or so Li'l Barts - which is just nutty.

And if you ever wanted them, use this opportunity to buy crocs, which are otherwise unacceptable by any normal fashion standards. When you're preggers, everyone tells you you're beautiful no matter what. And they mean it.

And most importantly, always know, that without even trying, just by being yourself, you'll be the kind of mum any Li'l Bart would dream to have.
(Do read the maternity books though, I think they teach you about cleaning baby poop).
