When you are lonely
I wish you love;
When you are down
I wish you joy;
When you are troubled
I wish you peace;
When things are complicated
I wish you simple beauty;
When things are chaotic
I wish you inner silence;
When things are empty
I wish you hope.
OK, so how I feel right now. Things are definitely not empty. With our work schedules and preparing for Emmy's birth we probably wish our glasses were a little more on the empty side. Things are pretty chaotic. We (yes, both James and I) need to make it through the TSHA conference. I am also trying to make sure my classes are ready for maternity leave. Luckily, things are not too chaotic with the pregnancy :). On that same thought, things seem complicated, but everyone says that it is about to become more complicated. I guess the sleepless nights, breastfeeding, diaper changing will all add up to complicated! But, I know Emmy will be beautiful and worth the complication! Troubled, when aren't I troubled about SOMETHING! I am not down, I could take another week without school, and I would be much happier sitting on a white sand beach, but I can't complain. I am definitely not lonely...I have this little fetus hanging out with me everywhere I go! She already has a personality with her kicks and when she chooses to kick (her favorite kicks are to music). She keeps me company and helps me to ignore annoying things!
Have a good night/day...depending on when you read this!

Awwwww, Kel! I'm sorry things are so hectic for you guys right now. I'm sure it IS crazy with TSHA now - my thoughts are with you! Can't wait to see you guys on Saturday though - will be good to finally (properly) catch up!
kelly, hope you are able to chill a little at TSHA! is that a joke?!? chill thru contractions? j/k! just hang in there...i promise you it's worth every second. now go get another load of laundry in the washer while you can... ;) i've been washing baby clothes all day, so i'm motivated. too bad the rest of the house is NOT ready for another baby yet!
You sound busy!!
If it's possible right now, go out and have some alone time with James. I know that sounds alittle bossy...but this time is so precious for you two.
I wish I could be around for you (just give me a call and I'll be there pronto - :) , but I know that you're in good hands with James and everyone.
BTW, I know that you're going to be a great mom. seriously.
Looking forward to meeting Emma Lu!
