Counting The Days Until...

Sunday, July 05, 2009



It's been a long weekend, but strange...we haven't been able to make plans, so everything we do takes place at the last minute. Why? Because we're waiting for Willow and Bradley to enter our world. It's a great thing to wait for, but it feels as if life is on hold. And once the hold button is lifted, life will never be the same.

It's amazing to realize that only two years ago I didn't know what it would be like to be a Nana. Now I can't imagine life without Bristol or Norah. I know that this will be true with Willow and Bradley too. But I haven't a clue.

So, we wait. And wait and wait and wait. Tracy is trying desperately to get Bradley to turn from his breach position - even attempting some unconventional methods; I pray they work. Part of me remembers being in the same position with my second child only to discover that she (being Tracy) was breach too. The only difference...I didn't find out until I had been in labor for 12 hours. An emergency C-section was my only option.

So I ask for your prayers! Please pray that Bradley will turn, and that Willow will arrive strong and healthy. I do know one thing for certain...this time a month from now I'll be holding both of these little babies in my arms, amazed once again at the miracle of life! It doesn't get any better than that!

Good night!
