Morjes!

Welcome to my blog. I write about fitting in, sticking out, and missing the motherland as a serial foreigner.

The results show

We had our 20ish-week sonogram this morning and managed to find out the gender of Sasha 2.0. For some reason, possibly because we are nerds, we can't just tell our family members if it's a boy or a girl. They have to figure it out themselves. With Sasha 1.0 (later christened Miriam Damascus), I just sent them all a cryptic six-digit number (FF99FF) via email and let them Google it out.

Two years later, Jeremy's brother took it up a notch and would tell us via email only that he and his wife were expecting a κορίτσι.

So this afternoon, I sent out an email to our family members. Since I'm an equal opportunity annoyer, I'll post it here and let you figure it out. The first one to solve it and comment gets to be the one to share the news, I guess!

This man married the fourth-oldest daughter of the second-oldest daughter of the successor to the last King of the United Kingdom of the House of Hanover. So far, the gender order of his children matches ours.

Please note, however, that we are not necessarily going to have the same total number of kids as this guy, and we are certainly not going to use the same names (though they are lovely).

SAHM, WFHM, WAHM or what?
