ONE more day!

As I went to bed last night, I thought to myself "this is the last night to go to bed and sleep in" for awhile :)
Emrie woke me up this morning and was playing makeup, she had lipstick and mascara all over her face. I woke up to, "Mom, do I look pretty?"
Among all the house cleaning chores I have to do today, I am so excited to spend one more day with just Emrie. We have enjoyed our week together. I don't want her to feel like Paylie is taking her place at all. WOW, how do mothers juggle more than one kid? Drew and I have really sat back these last couple of weeks and just prayed that we will be good parents, that we will have nothing but a heart full of love for both of our daughters, that they will both know how much we love them. All I could do was smile at Emrie this morning when she asked me if she looked pretty. Of course there was makeup all over her hands and forehead.
Paylie's room is ready, our bags are packed for the hospital, I will finish my house cleaning duties this afternoon, and tomorrow we will welcome another blessing into our lives.

We are so excited for you guys. Hope you manage to get some rest tonight. (That's the one thing about it being scheduled - I always know exactly when it's coming and I can never sleep very well the night before!) :)

Good luck tomorrow!!

What an exciting week for you guys. You and Drew are already great parents and now you have Emrie to help out!

Best of luck. I look forward to seeing pictures of Paylie.
