Monday has been FILLED with stuff to do, that is for sure! Jeff is on the west coast for the week and I went to mail Jake's graduation announcements... It is about time - it took me forever to get it together enough to actually mail them... while in line I met a sweet nurse from MHHS Katy Hospital L&D (kismet) - Jaime and I hadn't fully decided where to deliver and Jeff thinks Katy would be a better choice than St. Catherine's because I know everyone at Katy.... well, not everyone... Anyway, she works with my dear friend Amy (I love you Amy and those photos of Wesley are awesome, keep them coming)... so I passed along a hello to Amy and this nurse (I won't name her due to privacy stuff (mainly I didn't ask her permission to blog about her, that is always a sign to keep it private). Right there in the long line at the Katy Post Office, I decided that yes, that is where we will deliver our baby... This lovely nurse has 6 kids of her own and even adopted one while pregnant with another... and I am just saying, God , PLEASE give me the strength.... I have always felt blessed and capable, but multiple babies scare me. We agreed this will be the longest 40 weeks. I told her since we have been seeing the fertility specialist since early in the year, this was already the longest pregnancy on record.... LOL! Thanks, beautiful nurse who inspired me and who gave me words of encouragement - without even knowing all we have been through. You were Heaven sent and my visiting Angel today... I needed the uplift. The day after mother's day is hitting me a little harder than mother's day itself did... just missing my Jacque a lot and feeling her presence, but wishing her present.
Anyway, Jaime and I are just waiting (as I am sure all of you are) for the pregnancy test date.... May 23rd will be coming round the bend pretty darn fast! Jaime and I will rest easier when we know for sure - fr sure there is a positive on the pregnancy test.... we have to keep plugging away. It will be a quiet couple weeks... but, we will try to keep it interesting. Thank goodness for Cheri keeping me busy today! XOXO

thank you nameless nurse for giving my sister a lift when she needed it most. it's funny how we meet people at the oddest times in the oddest places and they can make such an impact on our lives! i was thinking of all of you together on mothers day and yes, of course, thinking about how you were without jacque. seems you never know when it's gonna hit the hardest. i love you sister with all my heart.
