Waiting
This is kind of what we feel like we've been doing - waiting. I mean, we're going places, doing things... But really we're waiting. Yesterday the doc said there's no way Elsie's waiting until her due date to come (Aug 20). So when I couldn't sleep while Elliot and Michael were napping this afternoon, I started intensely cleaning the house, hoping I would trigger a beginning that would not end in disappointment, but in a baby. I cleaned for 2 1/2 hours. I had two contractions.
The good news is, the house is cleaner. Michael's cooking dinner, and Elliot took a long nap. So, we wait.

Awww. I am hearing about you and my sister's waiting at the same time. I hope your little one comes soon--I'm sure it's hard!
I am happy to offer my house for cleaning, if you get finished with yours. Let nothing hinder you from triggering a birth. My house is your house.
you can come clean mine too, after you finish with mels. my car could use some washing too. anything to help you out.
You guys are so generous. Ah, the generosity of friends. I think the order of the afternoon is N A P.
We can't wait to hear news of Elsie's arrival. We'll be praying for safe and speedy delivery for mom and baby. Miss you.
