Prayers and Nostalgia

Just a quick update to let those of you who don't know that Macie's arrival is planned for Thursday the 9th at 10 am. Of course, if she decides to come earlier, that would be well accepted and appreciated by me! As the day draws closer, I have a lot of mixed feelings--excitement, happiness, RELIEF, sadness, anxiety. In a way, it's a bit sad to see the era of "Callie and Jack" go--we have become accustomed to our foursome family, I suppose. It's so hard to imagine how much our life will change in the blink of an eye after Macie is actually here, and never go back to the way it was before. I'm excited to see Callie with her--I think she will truly take pride in being the big sister and helping out with her, and she makes adjustments very well. I'm worried about my Jack-Jack--he is such a Mommy's boy, and I fear this could be hard on him. Anyways--pregnancy hormones at top levels I suppose, but nonetheless, Miss Macie will be here soon! So, please say a prayer for she and I on Thursday; that the surgery is eventless, that she is healthy, that my recovery is swift. We will try to keep everyone updated as quickly as possible, with photos too!
