Any Time Now

Someone said to me the other day, "Every first-time mom hopes her baby will come two weeks before the due date." That statement has certainly proven true for me. As much as I enjoy the miracle of life inside me, I'm ready to have the miracle on the outside now. :-) Only six more days until the official due date, but I know Baby is not looking at a calendar.

As a baby shower gift, my parents and my grandma gave us a year of diaper service. Our first shipment of 70 pre-folded cloth diapers arrived today, along with 6 velcro-tab diaper covers. The diaper bag is all packed for the birth center now. As for
my bag, well, that's another story.

I wish I could say that it was only with my first child that I wanted the baby to come two weeks early. It doesn't get any easier to wait with each pregnancy. :-) If anything, I'd say it gets harder to wait because after the first baby you know just how wonderful each little baby is. You only THINK you know how much you can love your child until you actually become a mother. A mother's love is powerful stuff!!! But, hang in there. You are so close, the blessed day will be here before you know it. :-)
