happy birth day...for now

today is your due date.

will you meet us today?

will we see you in all your wrinkle headed glory?

you almost decided to stage a break early sunday morning, but then decided against it.

mommy wasn't too happy with you after that. she told me that if you're going to start something then you should probably finish it. she felt like you were teasing her.

i know you didn't do it on purpose, but boy, you sure had us going. now things have quieted back down and we have resumed our daily vigil.

today is special though because today has been your birth day since january. today has been marked down on our calendar for 9 months and now it's finally here.

we're not sure if you'll be joining us today or tomorrow or the next day, but you'll be coming soon enough.

and when you do decide to make your entrance in our lives, we promise that we'll be (mostly) ready.

but today i just wanted to wish you a happy birth day...for now.
