to kiss these sweet toes.
to smell that beautiful new baby smell.
to see clenched fists and bent legs,
to hear wails and mewling cries,
tiny fingers and toes,
heads of hair.
waiting to meet them.
to hold them. to feed them. to swaddle them, spend sleepless nights with them.
to introduce them to their big sisters.
the other day, a lab tech was drawing my blood and asked me what i was having. the girls and j were with me.
i said two more girls. she said “oooohhhhh” and harper said “i KNOW!! isn’t it WONDERFUL????”.
sigh. i love that girl.i was SO proud of her in that moment!
at the doctor several days ago i was 3 cm. i’ve had a night full of contractions since and sporadic day contractions…so it’s only a matter of time.
my mom comes back tonight just in case.
it could be tomorrow, could be a couple more weeks.
but i’m ready.
and patiently waiting.
