Just like Catherine's (known as Kate) home town is thrilled for their lady I am delighted. Of course baby girls are great but how pressure releasing to have a boy first.
I first caught the Kate bug when some people we love lost a lot of weight. They said they were on a special diet they learned from "Kate." I must add this was said with vague sort of familiarity (I add this because of my wounded pride)
"Kate who?" I asked, thinking of two mutually known Kates.
"You know Kate, Princess Kate."
"Oh. Kate P?" I replied thinking they had aptly nicknamed one of our friends Princess as she is completely not a princess in her manner but a TRUE warrior princess of God.
"No. Princess Kate."
"Oh...." I still did not understand but as always a little frustration goes a long way in shutting me up so I sat and thought on it. How could I ask this differently?
"Have I met her?" I thought that question would do the trick. I would find out if it was one of the Kate's I knew or one that I had never met.
"Maybe you've seen her when you were in England." was the reply.
Aaaah Haa! Now I knew who we were talking about. The lovely Princess Lady engaged to the Prince.
I cannot wait for the baby photos. How delightful for England to have something so lovely to celebrate and how wonderful for the world to join in the celebration with waterfalls lighting up, airports being lit blue and all sorts of creative ways of saying "Hooray! Welcome Little Prince!"
