Waiting
A good friend was due with her first child last Friday. Each day since I've been getting more and more excited and anxiously awaiting the news that her precious baby had been born. I've restrained myself from calling every two hours to check in just in case, but I have been obsessively Facebook stalking her. ;) She has so many friends checking on her Facebook status that she started re-entering the same line ('So-and-So is checking in for all her stalkers...I'm still here!') every time she was on the computer just so we would all know when she was last online.
Yesterday morning I got the great news that they were heading in to the hospital, but after a few hours of pacing by the phone, I heard that she was only 1-2cm and had been sent home. This morning she was scheduled to go to the hospital at 7 and if they weren't too busy, was going to be induced. I haven't heard anything yet, and neither has anyone else in my network of stalkers.
Time is a funny thing...it seems like we've been waiting forever for this baby to be born (I can only imagine how she feels!) - and yet it's strange to think that a few years from now, we'll likely be sitting around wondering where the time has gone and how Baby has gotten so big!
