I can't think of a title? :)

A couple of updates:

1. I'm still pregnant and off and on struggling with it and accepting it. My attitude is typically very representative of 2 things - how much sleep I managed to get and how many contractions I had to deal with. I'm trying very hard to remain positive and can usually manage to joke about it, but I'll admit I've spent a few evenings sobbing in the tub trying to figure out what it is about this pregnancy/child that has had me experiencing prodromal labor for almost 2 weeks. I know about and have tried every old wives tale/natural induction technique available. I feel incredibly guilty for resenting my situation when there are other way bigger problems than being a week and a half overdue. I really hope the carpel tunnel, PUPPP rash, heartburn & swelling all cease IMMEDIATELY after delivery though, since I feel like I'm currently getting an extra dose. I KNOW she will be here when she's ready, but I'm miserable and very ready whether she is or not. I am convinced I've chosen the best prenatal/labor&delivery for me, and up to now I've been very happy with the care I've received, but I'll admit I've strongly considered checking myself into a hospital and refusing to leave until they extract this little person. Please pray for continued strength, sleep and patience, and that I will trust that this is for the best for our baby and me. And please pray for sensitivity from others while I'm dealing with some serious roller coaster emotions.

2. Today was MeMaw & Paw Evans' 50th Anniversary! The party was lovely, and I'm so proud of them for setting such a great example for all of us. You two are a beautiful and wonderful couple, and I love you both so much! I agree with Paw - their next 50 years are going to be even better!!

3. Grandma has taken a very sad turn. I want my Mom to have peace knowing she did absolutely everything she could for her, and I want my daughter to meet her great-grandma. If this child is born this weekend we will go to Port Lavaca to see her this week. The whole family is hurting right now and needs to be covered to prayers for comfort and healing. 

4. Maverick & Goose are still doing well. Goose is close to coming home since the puppies are almost weaned, and Maverick has been loving the time he's spent at the Ford's Casa with Leah, Duncan & Waylon. Thank you guys for taking such good care of our sweet boy! At this rate he's not going to want to be home with his mommy!
