I’m now a day over my due date.

At some point, I would like to find statistics on how many babies go past their expected due date. I’m 12 for 13, right now. (Timothy was 5 weeks early.)

This week, I’ve prepared the car seat. Our bags are packed and ready. I have the mailbox bow made and by the door. The hospital bow is ready and wrapped. Diaper bag? Check. My suitcase? Check.

I think I’m about as ready as ready can be…well, I am missing my husband until Monday. That’s a wee bit important. He’ll return and then we’re be completely ready for baby to arrive.

If he’s not here by Thursday, I’m scheduled to arrive that morning for an induction (typical for me). This morning, I was in bed feeling him wiggle deep inside of my body. It’s almost time! I’m so excited. I look at my other little ones (and not so little ones), and think what a blessing they each are…what will he bring to our family?

Please be praying for our family as we wait.
