The countdown has begun.
Baby #4 will join our family in approximately fourteen days.
Baby #4. Fourteen days.
I am simultaneously thrilled and exhausted just thinking about it.
There's so much I want to do between now and then:
weed the garden patch,
fill planter boxes,
start my cutting garden,
organize my garage,
plan my picture wall,
make frozen dinners,
keep up on laundry,
finish my manuscript,
get the nursery in order.
Pretty sure I could go on and on.
It's not as though my life stops with the arrival of this newborn,
but anyone who's experienced this epic life event knows that,
in some ways, it will.
At least for a time.
So, I'm focusing on the manageable things:
helping Mister and Honeybee complete their science fair projects,
making Mac's birthday special,
finding a few one-on-one hours for each of my Littles,
scheduling a date night with The Russian.
As for the rest...well, we'll see.
In the meantime,
I'll sit here for a moment and feel this baby
stretch his legs and roll about.
He'll hiccup for a bit and then settle down for a nap.
We'll share this body for a time longer
and watch the weeds grow.
See you on the other side. :)
