Ahhhhhhhhh

Everyone had a good night last night.

Billy, Melissa and Piper spent the night in that tiny (free... so not complaining) room... and everyone slept well, with nursing every 3 hours. The nursing went well. Everything went well. Ahhhhh.

Mimi spent the night at Pipers house and she got some good rest. The energizer bunny legend will live on... I am thinking of buying her a new pink outfit. I am thankful she didn't hear her alarm this morning, and slept in until 7:30... that's not sleeping in, in my book.

PopPop had some quality time with Abby and Sharla yesterday. Today is starting day for Kate's end table... only 13 days until her scheduled arrival.

To God we give thanks. Another day another chalk mark on our wall. The wall has lots of space and there have been many days we have forgotten to put a mark on it... A mark for each day we are blessed. We still have lots of chalk in our box... we will use it religiously... but we are flawed and we will forget again...

Today our hands are wet from wiping away the tears of joy. The chalk is wet in our hands. The mark on the wall is smeared... it is a special mark... easy to find on the wall.
