Finally - A Good REASON to get back to the BLOG

Well, note the time that this is being posted. I can’t get back to sleep (a true rare event for me). Celeste called about 2:10 and Kindra’s water broke. Her and Trevor are on the way to the hospital (TG) and Bob & Celeste are on their way to K&T’s house to pick up their dogs (tricked you – you thought I was going to say that they were also on their way to the hospital – I bet that little side trip caused Celeste a bunch of anxiety) to take them back to their house and then they are going to the hospital, too. Lucky for me I’m going to the hospital at 7:30am. Oh, wait – I’m going for a two hour meeting. Dang. And, can I just say that I’m getting my boxing gloves warmed up as I type because of the fight I’m going to have on my hands when Ryan wakes up and 1st realizes that we didn’t wake him up in the middle of the night to tell him and rush him to the hospital for the birth(s) and 2nd because I’m actually going to make him go to school in the morning. He’s been telling us every night since mid-April that we have his permission to wake him in the middle of the night if we get the call. He’s also been trying to carefully craft the plan/chain of events the day “it happens”. I think he might be a bit excited to meet these little ones. As we all are……………. But, we’ll have to wait until this afternoon – lucky for all of us (except Stuart) that we have Wednesday afternoon off. We can wait and give the parents and grandparents some room to breath – and fully experience the miracle.

But, even with that said, here I sit at 2 in the morning because I’m so nervous/excited that I can’t get back to sleep. So, I decided to email my friends and then post - for the second time ever - on my blog.


This is a good day. It is truly a miracle in so many ways and I ask each of you to please take a moment and ask for blessings of health and happiness on this new family, but even more that you thank God for the miracles that he gives us big and small – this being one his Biggies.


Today is truly one of my Reasons to Believe.
