Whispered Hopes


This morning, Anni gave my belly hugs and kisses and then, poking at my belly button, whispered, "Lil' Bit, you can come out now."

It's good to know she has big sister's permission, I know she has ours.  I've gone back and forth between just wanting to be d o n e and having a little more patience (probably because I've just decided that she's probably not going to ever come).  I think I've hit a happy medium today (hormones knows what will come tomorrow).  While I would be thrilled to go into labor at any minute, I'm also welcoming the time I didn't think I would get to read "Interrupting Chicken" a few more times to Anni, fold a few more loads of laundry and lie in bed when I get worn out, hand on belly, to feel our sweet little one make her presence known.  I'm so grateful not only that this pregnancy has been so much smoother than my first, but that we were blessed at all with a second baby, that Miss Anni gets to be a big sister.  I can't wait to watch that relationship unfold.

So, yes, Lil' Bit, you can definitely come out anytime.  But it's okay to come in your time and not mine.

    1. Nothing yet :). A string of (what I assume were) braxton hicks last night... I thought maybe it was time, but no such luck, hehe! Hope you and your handsome boys are doing well!

  3. The line "hormones know what will come tomorrow" literally made me snort and laugh out loud. So, so true. I think I'm going to have to incorporate that into my daily conversations because it certainly is a fact.

    Can't wait to hear about 'lil bit making her appearance! Prayers for a smooth delivery!
