Be Patient...

This is something I have to talk about with the girls all the time - how God tells us to be patient with everyone. Well, tonight I got a call at 10 saying not to come to the hospital because my "scheduled" induction was on hold, and that there was someone scheduled for 8P that was ahead of me for a bed. "Just go to bed and we'll call you." Um, thanks. The whole point of scheduling it for midnight was so that I didn't have to be away from the girls for as much time, and could see them tomorrow, instead of laboring tomorrow. Since Brother has no intentions of coming on his own...well, I'm at the mercy of the not-so-sympathetic nurse and my doctor, who wouldn't let me just wait until tomorrow night so that my "scheduled" induction could actually be scheduled. I have a feeling that has more to do with his holiday plans than anything else.

I guess the Lord really needed to teach me more about patience and His timing. Hard to feel like I'm really open to those lessons at this point, though, unfortunately...

At least I have a few hours to snuggle my precious girls if I can sleep - I love these pictures of them. I have been extraordinarily weepy today, even before the bad news, and love and will miss them so much!

those pictures of the girls are so cute. what pretty dresses. i'm sure the scheduling thing was frustrating for you. hope it's worked out by now and you have some good news. i know you're going to miss the girls a lot, so praying the time in the hospital will go quickly and you can start your new family altogether. see you soon hopefully. :)
