Are You Ready?

People ask, "Are you ready?' My answer varies depending on what I've been contemplating...

Is the house ready? A BIG FAT NO. I don't even have a place for the baby to sleep yet and the baby clothes are still in the back corner of mini storage. Am I worried? Not really. We are putting the house back on the market next week, so at least the house will get a major deep cleaning and then I'll feel better. Next week we should be able to get a lot accomplished with having Thanksgiving Break.

Am I ready to be done with pregnancy? YES, YES, and YES. I am ready to want to eat again, to be able to bend down to pick something up, to breath freely. On so many levels, this answer is a resounding yes.

Am I ready to mother 3 children at once? I think I can, I think I can... Enough said.

Am I ready to hold this baby... ABSOLUTELY!

Am I ready for labor and delivery again? You bet, if it means I won't be pregnant anymore! I've done it twice, what's a third time?

Just a few more weeks to go, and then I have no choice but to be ready!
