The past few days have been filled with a whirlwind of feelings. Sunday was such a beautiful day, hot, but beautiful. The time spent with my family was priceless. Yesterday, I spent A LOT of time on the phone. My sister, my grandma, my sister-in-law, lunch, a trip to the post office, playdough time, my sister, my other sister, couldn't get the carpet in the living room vaccuumed quite enough so I just kept doing it over and over. Thru all of that vaccuuming I missed the phone call from my grandma.
"Pop has passed away". He waited until my grandma arrived and held his hand and then he died. Almost 60 years of marriage....How do you pick up the pieces after that. I just keep thinking of what my grandpa was thinking in the quiet moments and what went thru my grandma's mind when she walked thru the door last night?
She told me to be ready to go to the hospital b/c her great-grandpa was going to send her. She was just waiting for him to get there.
Well, this morning I woke up at 4 with contractions and at 5 decided to get my lazy bones out of bed and get some laundry & dishes done...oh and pack a bag for myself and newborn! We got to the hospital about 9 a.m. and after having contractions every 3-5 minutes for what seemed like forever I only dialated another cm. and I was starving and figured I could do what I was doing there at home. So here I sit. Waiting patiently...well trying!
Apparently, she likes spending time with her great-grandpa!
