My sister’s baby is coming…SLOWLY. Water dripping from a faucet slow. She’s already begun to dialate…some pain started…and then it stopped…
My brother-in-law is rehearsing how to grab everything (wife included) and bundle it into the car in record time…
My mother is on the verge of a nervous breakdown…and the possibility of a Friday the 13th birth is not sitting well. On the cusp of becoming a grandmother, her mind is plagued with with flashbacks to my birth, and the birth of my sister, back in those stone-age days known as the 1970s…
It’s going to be a wonky few days…say a prayer for my sister and my nearly-arrived niece.
