Miscellaneous Baby Update

A lot of emotional ups and downs on the Wangsters front. Samuel Abrahm Wang's birth and first week have been quite eventful. His NICU course has left his parents exhausted, but Megan and I managed to steal a some time from them for a short phone call tonight. All children do worry their parents and I guess Samuel gets to start earlier.

It's amazing that Sioux and Hue have time for anything else, and they managed to send us some gifts: the bedding set and mobile for Paige. They were meant for Megan's upcoming baby shower, but we got the packages before the card, and we unintentionally opened them early. On the plus side, I do get to add some pictures.



Some songs take on new meaning as you gain new experiences. It's now impossible for me to listen to "Sympathy" by Sleater-Kinney without thinking of Hue, Sioux, and Samuel. I think the songs captures many of the mixed emotions, a parent goes through as she worries for her sick child (lyrics here). I'll tell you for sure how accurate it is when I have to worry about Paige.
