We were shocked and scared and not quite ready...we thought we had a little while left. We made phone calls...rallied the troops...loaded the Jeep with the bags that had been sitting by the door for over a month and headed off. I cried. I sobbed. I shook.
We stopped in at McAlister's to grab some lunch before we went to the hospital. We ran into several fellow teachers and friends and I was just too much of a wreck to eat inside. So we drove to a nearby park and ate in complete silence as we processed what was about to happen. I cried some more.
We arrived, checked in, had bloodwork taken, and got hooked up. Everyone started arriving and within a few hours the doctor came in and administered the cervical gel. Not even an hour later I was having strong contractions and they would continue to get worse throughout the night...and it was only a matter of hours until we would meet our little bundle of joy...
