I think Joe and I got everything done that I wanted to have done before we leave for the hospital. We rearranged the house to make things more functional for bringing a newborn home to. We deep cleaned many areas of the house where Mira will be at a lot. Our bedroom is baby set-up and friendly. And our bags are packed!
It was really hard letting Dustin and Aryanna go with Joe's Mom today, though. That made everything very real for me, and it was emotional not knowing exactly when I'm going to see all of my children again. They drive me crazy when they're home, but I did not want to let them leave today! I miss them so much already! I said "I love you" to them probably a hundred times before they left, and Joe's Mom was crying a little bit too as she hugged Joe and I goodbye. I didn't cry until after they left... then I sat on my porch wishing they were still home, but also trying to tell myself that maybe we can arrange a family member to bring them down to visit within this next week. I'll be so happy when all three of my children can be together, right in front of me! It will be the most beautiful sight I've ever seen, I'm certain!
I'm holding off the emotions right now by focusing on all the things that need done. I'm excited for sure, but also a bit nervous, and driven, and all kinds of things! Joe and I have to be at the hospital in almost exactly 12 hours from now, so I am going to get some sleep now! I'll be sure to update my blog as much as possible! The moment of truth is on it's way, so thank you to everyone for the prayers, good lucks, and birthday wishes! I love you all, and I'll update as much as I can!
