tired.
i have to admit, i'm very tired. i remember being this tired during the first trimester. somebody told me then that it was as if i were climbing a mountain everyday. and a 14'er at that. i slept 10 hours last night - from 9 til 7. or at least i was in bed that long, and resting. i think i was sleeping. and i was only up twice in the night, which is weird considering that since thanksgiving (since having a cold) i've been up every hour or so... which works out to at least 4 times a night.
but like dan said, i'll be having a really long day soon, so it is Okay to go to bed early.
what more is there to do to get ready for this little one? what have we forgotten? what's missing? the nursery is ready, the diapers are washed, the bags are packed for the hospital, the car seat is in the car. i even made gatorade, finger jello and frozen juice chips for during labor. it's hard, this waiting game. surreal even. we're just ready to meet our little miracle.
this morning i spent 20 minutes on the phone with my friend kristin in ypsi. you might remember, they had baby adelaide in october. she prayed with me for grace and patience today. it helped.
we prayed this baby in - all of us. we can pray this baby out, right? will you pray with us?
