CONTENTS

Editors Note: In order to avoid awkward he/she, him/her references, in some cases we have opted to use either masculine or feminine pronouns for certain examples, alternating between the two. The same information pertains universally to both boys and girls. Additionally, where we have chosen to use the word children, this also applies to parents with one child.

For nothing is fixed, forever, forever, forever,
it is not fixed;
the earth is always shifting,
the light is always changing,
the sea does not cease to grind down the rock.
Generations do not cease to be born,
and we are responsible to them because we
are the only witnesses they have.
The sea rises, the light fails, lovers cling to each other,
and children cling to us.
The moment we cease to hold each other,
the moment we break faith with one another,
the sea engulfs us and the light goes out.

JAMES BALDWIN

I was still in a state of awe as I lay my newborn son down in the shiny wooden crib for the very first time. Even though he was a normal-sized baby, he seemed sooo small, and the bed looked enormous in comparison. Unable to bear him looking so tiny on that large mattress, I finally laid him crosswise at the head of his bed! And then I sat down to gaze at his tiny sleeping face, searching for the messages Id been trained to read. Such a full mouth! I thought. This would be a very cuddly guy, a young boy who would revel in family gatherings but have a hard time with change. As a teenager, he would never neglect to visit his grandmother, but might become a bit too much of a pleaser. His ears lie close to his head, I noticed with a relieved sigh and I hoped theyd stay that way and not start to stick out later on. This meant that he wouldnt be an obstinate child. Thank goodness! But he might need extra encouragement to go after what he wanted in life. What his nose would reveal would have to wait awhilethat wouldnt start to grow into its true size and shape for a few years. His hair was red, which made me laugh out loud. My son is half Chinese, so everyone fully expected him to be born with black hair and no hint of my own strawberry blonde. When she first saw him, my sweet Chinese mother-in-law had hastened to assure me that it would soon change to black, as if red hair were a misfortune! As he grew, his hair did darken to brown, though with red highlights, and I have to admit Im still tickled that his looks reflect a balance of both sides of his lineage.
