Tough Night

Last night was rough. I woke up to be violently ill around two a.m. I wanted Andy and wondered if a)I was dying b)I should just call my mom & the hospital and get it over with. I've kept a couple tortilla chips & a few sips of hot tea down this morning. I have high hopes for more. I've got my first appt set up for this coming Tuesday at 3. I'm excited about this place. I keep having dreams I'm having twins. Something in me says if I'm this ill there's got to be more than one little lima bean in there. Then again maybe it's my way of working through the idea of how much work four kids five and under will be. If I think about five kids five and under - two newborns - it makes four kids seems a lot more manageable. Please keep praying for me. I'm not able to do much more than walk from one room to the other without getting really ill. I miss my dear, dear Andy. BUT! I'm about to call a friend to see if she'll take the boys for a while and if that doesn't work out I've got two or three others that have volunteered as well.

God created every organ, every hormone, every reflex in your body to serve these children. I mean, from the time they are just a bunch of cells your body says, "Ok, I'm serving another little bitty!". Lynn, I am so sorry you feel so gross, and I wish I could take your boys for awhile too, but alas. I just think it's really cool that your intensity does not stop for these kids. And I do think you're a little crazy about the twins. If I was prophetic once, maybe my comment will calm you're nerves. I don't think you've got two. But, I could be wrong. We'll find out Tuesday?

Oh Lynn, how awful! :( I hope you were able to get some help today. I'm so sorry. Here's hoping you have baby girl hormones messing with your body. I'm with katie. Don't think it's two, I think it's a girl.

Oooh. That birth center does look nice. How nice to have a pleasant option to look forward to.
