The Best Laid Plans…

by Kyra

Whew. What a day. It’s been a crazy day of ups and downs – very emotional one. Unfortunately, it looks like I will not be having a home birth. That was our big plan, our hope, etc. But I think Dave and I are both getting used to things not going as planned. Am I happy about this? No, but I have to just believe it’s for the best and there’s a reason for everything, including this. I’ll leave it at that for now because it’s been a long and draining day. Tomorrow are tests and then we’ll know more. But without further ado; some full term photos (man, I really wish I were more photogenic!) So, I look tired, have a really stupid constipated grin on my face and it looks like there’s a dead kitten on the ground next to me. Aren’t there photogenic classes that I can take?!:

But if it helps, your description of the photos made me laugh out loud, as does your face in the photos. I think you’ll look back on those photos and laugh in years to come.

If it’ll cheer you up, I gave you the Happy Award today. Isn’t that ironic?

I hope tomorrow looks up for you.

I’m so sorry this is happening… I wish I was there to just be there…
Side Note: If that isn’t a dead kitten – what is it? That was funny!
Love You K – I just know there is a bigger reason why this is happening!!!
