Two years ago, we were preparing for one of life's hardest moments, the loss of our brother Adam. Now, same time of year, same sort of emotions but this time, we're waiting for a baby to arrive. In this episode we talk about the strange timing of life, how grief and joy keep showing up together and what it's like to be back in a season of anticipation, just for something completely different. Holly's in LA for a quick trip, Jill's very pregnant and very ready, and the family has rallied while her husband's working across the world. There's mahjongg, there are memories, and in true Shakoor fashion there's a full blown betting pool for the baby's gender and arrival date. Winner may not get much beyond the satisfaction of being right, but honestly speaking, isn't that what really matters?
