By Kris | Published: December 3, 2012

This weekend my latest post for The Conversation was featured on their website: Ever so often I rest my hand on my belly.

“Can we sing it?”  “Sure.  Ok.  Let’s sing it.” “Your turn…”  “My turn…”  “Ok.  Now together.” She chuckles as I pull her closer so that her head rests on my shoulder.  Both our heads resting on the same pink pillow.  We sing the words in our silly voice.  In our fast voice and then slowly.  [...]
