Today, January 21, my world shattered. Briefly. And in an "if only" kind of way.
My surgery was rescheduled for..well, for 7:30, I guess, but we have to be there at 5:30am.
What a mixture of emotions by just one phone call. That means I get to spend all day and night holding you. I get to feel my legs and wiggle my toes earlier in the day. I don't have to fast for 12 hours...
But it also meant us both asking what in the world to do with your brothers and sisters??? Because that is a huge deal when the nearest family member is over 2000 miles away.
Well, its all worked out now. My legs were shaking as I walked down to put the clothes in the dryer. My neighbor could only offer a little relief. It felt good to talk about it, anyway. Your dad and I went over our options and decided to call Mrs. Karen, who thankfully is willing to come over a lot earlier to babysit for us.
I don't know what we would do without our seminary friends out here! People like Mrs Karen make me want to be a better person and friend. Maybe thats part of the growing that we are supposed to do while we're here. I know I could use a few lessons.
Anyway, so my little darling... At this time, you are simultaneously taking out my belly from the front and my hip bone on the left. I have to sit weird to accomodate your growing size. I can't believe that I'll see your little face in less than 48 hours!!
