EXPECTING ANY TIME NOW


In just a bit we are expecting a phone call to say that the new baby girl has arrived to join the squishy little guy. She doesn't have a name yet--it has been suggested that she may arrive with a name badge, "Hello, My Name is... And then, we will know her name!

JA has been sick this week with a nasty head cold and hasn't been sleeping well. Grandma arrived on Sunday, driving the eight hours by herself in order to spend time with the squishy guy and ease the transition for when mommy and daddy head for the hospital. He's such a lucky guy--his Nana and Papa are here this afternoon and giving him lots of attention. Grandpa arrives on Saturday morning. JA's world is changing. He will be sharing the spotlight, but I don't think he'll mind. He's just about the age when other things and people will be important to him and his world is expanding.

The new little girl has a pink and brown room with lots of windows and sunlight. Today JA and I looked out her windows and enjoyed a treehouse view of the backyard. There was a squirrel busily crunching last fall's acorns.

Lots of friends and family are praying for this little one's safe arrival. She is blessed already and can expect a life filled with love and protection. We're waiting little one...
