bag packed, clothing washed...did i remember everything? do i need one more blanket, another outfit, just in case? am i overplanning, under-doing?
i'm excited. i'm so, so excited.
but
oh Lord, i'm so scared.
:: tomorrow is the day ::
i'm being induced tomorrow, the stroke of noon is where this pumpkin starts to transform from me to Mommy. it could be hours, it could be days. i don't like this unknown where i sit right now, this not knowing.
but this i do know.
He is greater. He is in control.
He is God. i am not.
so pray for me, would you please? because i'm so very small, and this seems so very big. and i need peace to do this big thing, this foreign and beautiful and frightening thing.
i'm bringing life through blood. it's sacred, a reminder of Him, really. the Stone Table broke when blood was spilled, and my body might break in this pursuit of motherhood. i'm ready to be carried, lifted up and held.
tomorrow is begin.
tomorrow is the start.
and He is greater.
Praying for you!!! Hope everything goes well. :)
