No, this is not another post about how women are better than men or how the women of the Arena should band together... this is only a post about one thing, children.

Having heard of the birth of Heath and Raietha McCormack's child, as well as the pregnancies of Noelle Medici-Giovanni, Sidartha est Lathadoscia and Khrysta Le`igh Satyriasis, as well as being pregnant myself, I would like to know if any of the other ladies of our fair community are expecting, hoping, or have just brought forth a child. If you know of someone who doesn't read the posts, -please- point this one out to them.
Also, for all of us, I would like to hold a baby shower... We may be from different Houses, different worlds, different lifestyles, even different races, but we all share this one blessed thing. And, with luck and perseverance, our children can grow up to see that none of these differences matter in the face of true friendship.

Again, this may have little to do with the Duel itself, but it has a great deal to do with the community that is The Duel of Swords.

Drakey-Poo,

I am also aware that Mithrandril Greenleaf is soon expecting a sprite child of her own.

::Sticks a gum wrapper to the board, with a hastily scribbled note on it::

I'm not preggers, and not ever planning to be, but I'll be sure and come to the shower. Just can't wait to spoil all your kids rotten and turn them into brats like me.

Ladies,
Congrats on the little ones. I agree with Buffy, no baby here for a while. But would love to celebrate with all of you. See ya all soon.

The Regent and Commoner sits in the quiet of the arena, recalling her last pregnancy, along with the slights, insults, physical and magical attacks and threats to have her arrested, she pens a short note.

My sincerest and heartfelt congratulations Heath and Raietha on the birth of their beautiful son, Britian Heath McCormack. It was a joy to witness. May none of the mothers of Rhydin who are enciente suffer nor be made to endure the slights, insults and attacks upon their person as some mothers have endured in past.

A baby shower is a marvelous idea for indeed, the children are the future of the community, Duchess Drakewyn.

The woman tacks the note on the corkboard, laughs merrily recalling Yasa's numerous brood and the kindly Cleric's consternation when he discovered that babies spit. She then hurries out to settle a tussle between her twins, cradle her newest daughter and tease the nanny about misplacing the magical nappies.

::Scans the notices and answers, not yet seeing any from the ladies in question themselves.::
::Attaches a second note to the first, still written in the Jade green ink and flowing script.::

Phil...
If you don't stop with the constant "Drakey-poo" comments, I'm going to challenge you and take your ring. And don't think I'm kidding, either.

Buffy, Jona & Collie...
Thanks for your offers of support. Oh, and Buffy? Don't worry, little Delilah will be plenty spoiled by me.

Drake.

Hello Drake,

A wonderful idea you got there. Tormay, Dalton's and my son, is but a couple weeks old. And he loves new outfits...... well at least he seems to smile when being put into them for the first time. l would welcome the chance to exchange experiences with the other new mommies, too.

I think a baby shower would be a lovely idea, Drakewyn. I can't wait to compare notes and experiences with the other mommies and mommies to be ::Smiles::
