On Thursday, my daughter Hadley and I got a preview of the preview. Finishing touches were being put on the exhibit and very few animals were in place but it was enough to make us excited for this immersive exhibit that celebrates the rich cultural connections of Asian people with wildlife.

When my husband and I decided we were ready to become parents, we quickly learned that getting pregnant was the easy part. The pregnancy wasn’t too difficult either.
The worst part was anticipating the birth. Knowing that the baby was going to have to come out somehow. I tried to decide which path would be best. [...]
