Bo grabbed my hand very tightly, and whispered "well done, honey" in my ear - it is the greatest feeling to share the most amazing moments with the ones you love. Watching our son, move around, seeing the fine contours of his feet, legs, arms and hands rendered us both speechless. It is quite a sight to see how real (if that makes sense) he is becoming... Bo counted out five fingers on his hand, asking the sonographer to hold still for a bit so that he could see b...
