That’s right! Knowing the you are one sleep away from going to pick up your long-awaited baby has got to be the closest thing an adult will ever get to remembering what it felt like to be a little kid on Christmas Eve. I’m too excited to sleep!! And I really should sleep while I can.
I’ve folded the blankets my mom made for B tonight, wishing so hard that she were here to make one for her newest grandson.
I’ve completely rearranged the nursery. š
And we had THE toast. Husband and I have carried a bottle of sparkling cider around in our fridge for over 5 years that we bought one day at IKEA, back in 2009. We had thought we were pregnant, or that we were about to be, or something, and we had planned to pop it open to celebrate. Well, when we found out we weren’t, we stubbornly decided to save that bottle, month after month-to celebrate with on that day we would find out we were “with child”. There were days in these past 5 years that I looked at that bottle and wanted to smash it against the wall. But tonight we decided to celebrate our “pregnancy” by cracking it open. And tomorrow…Christmas.

I had Bible Study last night and wasn’t able to get on FB, but I thought of you and your little man and how exciting today would be for you guys. Can’t wait until you have him in your arms and see you write “He’s here” or something cool like that. Wish I were there to see. Know that Martha is watching over you and rejoicing with you. Love you guys.
