Circle of Life

While we wait for news of an addition to our family, we also await news of sad nature.  My Grandfather, a solid rock of a man who has led a loving and productive life, has been diagnosed with leukemia.  This following a few rough years health-wise.   So, the inevitable is upon us and we wait...2 weeks to 2 months...and we appreciate...one half of me wanting time to pass quickly, the other half saying 'slow down!'
