So I've spent the day going through my email and clearing out the messages and chats and things I don't want cluttering things up, and I came across this bit of fortune telling. It was just after Sam was offered his job last December, and we were telling friends the good news. As we are preparing right now to leave for China, my last comment struck me as particularly prophetic.
me: so . . .
Sam got an offer yesterday.
friend: OOOOH
and?
me: chances are high that we'll accept :)
we're getting pretty excited about it.
and . . . we're again thinking puppy thoughts, haha
friend: haha, perhaps moving in March AND a puppy
you are so daring
me: I know, right?
all we need is to throw a baby in the mix and we'll be nice and overwhelmed.
Overwhelmed indeed, though Fin isn't quite a puppy anymore.
And speaking of Fin, here's a cute picture of him to end things with:

You would be prophetic. I know I left a comment on Facebook, but I am just so, so excited for you. When I read about it, I let out this huge gasp and Nate was like "Oh no! What happened?!?!" It was pretty funny.
So are you actually having the baby in China? I know next to nothing about China so I don't know what that experience would be like at all.
Wait a second, Holly. WHAT?? M.C.'s comment is leaving me speechless. WHATTT?????
Or, in Chinese, 什麼???
Ummm...I feel totally clueless. I'm thinking this is a big announcement, but you're going to have to be pretty specific here.
TELL!!!!
I'm going to check out Facebook RIGHT NOW!
You are so sly that when you announce it people aren't even really sure if they're getting the right message. I love that.
Aw man. I wish I could see the picture of Fin.
Yay for baby yay for baby!
Wow, I love the convo snippet. Your anonymous friend is so witty.
Congrats again on the baby. You're gonna rock the whole mom thing.
Augh! How exciting!
Congrats!!!
Who was that anonymous friend anyway? I feel like that conversation is familiar, so I'm slightly thinking it was me, but then again, that might be unlikely.
Also, Meredith asked me today if you were able to adopt a baby. Further proof of your slyness!
