Vanessa,
We are all looking
for good news right now, and your announcement came at the right time.
Thanks for clarifying
the pronouns, by the way. Here in Sweden we are encouraged to use "hen"
(regardless of gender), which is a hybrid pronoun for he/she. English is
awkward since referring to a single person as "they" still sounds
a bit distant...
All the best with
this process, and welcome to the world!
(Love the new
email handle, by the way)
Best Regards,
Mark Gonzalez
