38 weeks and counting!

It has been way too long since I've posted...

School has ended (finally!) with Baccalaureate and YouthLeader both going off without a hitch! I'm so glad that I was able to make it through all of YouthLeader with next year's Peer Ministers. They are such a great group of kids and I can't wait to work with them next year.

On the baby front, everything looks good and on schedule. Baby's head is down and I'm still getting lots of movement. Braxton-Hicks contractions are a regular feature around here with a few real contractions thrown in but nothing regular. 2 weeks exactly until my due date, but we'll see when he wants to come! I'm all for him coming early, but Pat seems to think that he'll stay in until at least the 4th. Oh well, nothing I can really do about it, but that's not stopping me from eating spicy foods and moving around as much as possible.

I'm getting so excited about meeting our little boy! I can't wait to hold him, to kiss him, and learn all about this amazing person who we're being entrusted with. What an honor and blessing to be given the responsibility of raising one of God's own precious little ones. We pray every night for the grace to to our best and to love him the best we can.

We just can't wait.....
