Getting closer

As I looked down into his little eyes and stroked his soft head, I felt a bond like no other. A bond that only a parent and a child can feel. But, that moment was all in a dream I had the other night. I woke up feeling desperate for time, for another month maybe? How are we going to raise this child? Are we going to love him no matter what? Are we going to do everything possible to keep him safe and secure? All of these questions feel my mind as the date approaches. You know what? We can't do this on our own. We can do it with God's help. He has promised that we can do ALL things through Christ who gives us strength. Phew! What a relief.

Now, the question is... Who will get here first? I had another doctor's appoinment last Thursday and I am 1 cm dilated and 20% effaced, which means, it's getting closer. After 4-5 days of that appointment, the baby could come any day, he said. Mom and Dad Reimer are expected to be here Friday afternoon. The Race is on!!!!
