I think I've really put on the blinders now and am looking ahead… or looking inward. I think that the reason I keep saying he could come at anytime is not because if I don't go into labor tomorrow, I'll be upset (although I would LOVE to go into labor tomorrow afternoon :)), but because I feel like there are so many people who don't understand the eminence of this situation. Everyone keeps saying, When is your due date? Well, at forty weeks… How much longer till you're due? And I think I'm just feeling frustrated that people don't understand that life doesn't go on our schedule. We don't get to decide when someone is born or when someone dies. We love to plan and we love to know the answers… but that's just not what happens. So, may I acknowledge the Lord in all my ways and not put a timetable on when Liam arrives. Lord - you have decided before time the days of our lives:
"in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there was none of them." Psalm 139:16
