"An Occupy Wall Street protester who was penned on a sidewalk by police, then pepper-sprayed by a New York Police Department officer is expecting a baby with a volunteer medic who came to her aid that day. According to the New York Times, Kaylee Dedrick, and fellow protester Robert Grodt are expecting a baby girl in early October and plan to marry."

Can we all wish them well?

I know I do...............:)

Fantastic moments happen - as well - in unlikely places - Me(?) I like the acoustics in my shower - though fortunately no one is subjected to my appreciation of shower acoustics - but me. {:-]) Thanks for sharing that song - which happened in an unlikely place.

Beautiful. Thanks so much shooz....for sharing this wonderful news with us.

This child is a symbol of what can be. That from darkness can rise a beautiful orb of light.

Yes, shooz, me too. That is very sweet. OWS brings people together, doesn't it?

The forum has been such a kludge lately, I was happy to find something positive to post.

Thanks for noticing............:)

Very nice shooz ;-) Heart warming post. My Dad [RIP] would always quote Wordsworth when he heard babies had been born to anyone :

  • "A child more than all other gifts ~ that Earth can offer to declining man ~ brings Hope with it ~ and forward-looking thoughts." ~i~

This was Dad's version that I heard all my born days but I can't vouch for total accuracy. Your nice post made me remember him. Thanx again mate & you'd've loved Dad's shooz - he was a dapper don, lol, :-) Sigh ... love you Dad ~*~

ohmmm mane padme hummm ...

Beauty like this doesn't sell on the forum I guess. We're overrun with fear threads.

Thankfully you and BW did notice............:)

It made me feel good too.

Thanks for the tune.

Think I'll give it another bump, for good measure.......:)

[-] 3 points by beautifulworld (23822) 12 years ago

Me too. Thanks again, shooz, for making me smile. Love is what it's all about, in the end.
