I went to see my Dr. today, and he said that I am 2 cm dialated, and everything looks good. He agreed to induce me on the 14th if I don't go into labor by then. So at least I have an end date. I am still having a lot of contractions, and I am getting more uncomfortable by the day. I am trying to take it easy so I don't make the contractions worse, so the house looks like a tornado hit. Other than that I am just trying to spend as much time with the girls and Dave as possible.
I am mom to 4 little girls: Sarah 5, Hannah 3, Stephanie 2, and Annie born July 2006. We love learning and are learning to love. We are using Sonlight Kindergarten and a Pre-K schedule I put together.
Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that this extraordinary power may be from God and not from us. We are pressured in every way but not crushed; we are perplexed but not in despair; we are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed. We always carry the death of Jesus in our body, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. II Corinthians 4:7-10
