37 weeks

So I am 37 weeks! My doctor said that I am free to have the baby anytime now. Whoa...I'm not quite that ready! I still have January 9th in my mind. Alas, if he decides to come early, I'm assured that everything will be okay.

It's neat being so far along in pregnancy around Christmas. I have reflected more on Mary this year. I cannot imagine riding on the back of a donkey to Bethlehem being so pregnant. We watched The Nativity the other night and I must say that I have a new respect for Mary. Unlike Mary, I will relax for 4 days this weekend in the comfort of my own home and cannot WAIT!!
