waiting, waiting, waiting

// July 13th, 2008 // No Comments » // Family

These last few days have been an interesting experience as we wait the imminent arrival of our little girl. (I say girl but I guess there is a 1% chance its a boy – but if she does come out a boy then he is going to be dressed in pink for the first 3 months of his life in the outside world!).

If you’ve ever ordered something mail order then there is nothing worse than the delivery schedule which usually consists of turning up on a specific day – but they give no specific time. So you end up sitting around all day waiting – and guaranteed your delivery is the last of the day. Well – if you think that is frustrating try waiting for a delivery when the time frame is a week! The worst thing is trying to plan your life around the eventuality that at some point you’ll have to drop everything before Gosia drops everything…

You then get to a point where you think – “now would be a good time” – but soon that passes and you’re hoping that it will wait until the next “good time”.

I was thinking earlier that it never seemed to be this bad with Joel – then I realised he came 5 days early which was totally unexpected.

So I guess we’re just going to have to wait it out – but sometime in the next few days our little Ania will enter into the world and start her own amazing journey. Before we know it she’ll be an amazing little girl going off to school, making friends, leading her own life!

I can’t wait to give her the best start to her journey that anyone can possibly give!
