I'm fully aware that tomorrow is the day that I'm no longer supposed to be pregnant. I'm fully aware that I am ginormous and not getting any smaller. I'm fully aware of the feet in my ribs and the head pressing on my bladder. I'm fully aware of how hard it is to sleep at night when you are 40 weeks pregnant. But I'm okay with it. I'm also fully aware of the miracle it is that my body can grow a whole baby inside it starting from just two little cells. I am okay with my baby taking a few extra days to grow so that he can come out as healthy as possible. It's true I can hardly wait to hold this little son of mine in my arms and to meet him and to see and kiss his sweet face, but I'm willing to let him come when he is supposed to. I do wish I knew what day he would finally come, but I'm willing to wait. My doctor said he wouldn't induce me until the 27th. 10 days after my due date. I really hope I don't have to wait that long, but I will do what is necessary to bring this child into the world. My parents came down to watch my kids while I had my baby this week. They only have a few days left until they have to go home to their normal lives and jobs, and hey won't be able to come back and help if Elijah is born later. It will be interesting to see what will happen with this cute little baby of mine. I can hardly wait til he comes, but I will of course. :)
