Lovely husband: It's 2014.
Me: Yep. Here we are.
LH: You're going to start having contractions pretty much any time now.
Me: Yeeessss...um, thanks for the reminder?
LH: It's probably going to hurt.
Me: This is not as helpful as you think it is.
LH: This is the year we have a baby.
Happy New Year, folks. It's a threshold here in my world - I hope it's a bridge to all of the next for you as well. More when my fingers start working again. (Don't ask: pregnancy turns out to be seriously inconvenient towards the end. At least that's my experience.)
