news and gossip (2 of 2)

Shorter but more dramatic is the news that (apparently after much effort and heartache) Carol M from college and wife Sherry K (actually Carol is now Carol K as well) are expecting a baby! More specifically, Carol is now six months pregnant! Very exciting.

If you didn't even know she was married, here is her wedding announcement from the class notes of 2002 (which came up when I googled her in hopes of a photo). I deleted key names etc. (out of the perhaps misplaced desire for some degree of anonymity which other bloggers seem to be abandoning...) which makes it look like something out of a Bronte novel, but never mind.

Married: Carol M_____ to Sherry K_____ (M.Ed., B________ College of Education) on April 21 in New York City. The guests included woman of honor [Carol's sister] '89; former roommates Jessica B________ and Patricia L_______; [Birdfarm], and Shari B_______ '85, S.D. '98.

The couple live in a small but cozy apartment on the Upper West Side; Carol works on on-line educational initiatives for C_________ University and Sherry teaches pre-kindergarten at R______ S______ Day School. Neither can imagine doing the other's job, though mutual respect abounds. Reach Carol at carol.[formerlastname]@[the usual alum address].

They also were legally married in Massachussetts in 2004 and even made the papers because of it—they were going to challenge NY's refusal to honor MA weddings. I don't know what the upshot of that was.

And that's all the news & gossip I have for you today.
