Hi Girlies! I have news that should be joyous (and it is, of course) but the mother in me knows it will be a BIG deal in the long run. Sarah and Paul are expecting. Now isn't that good news?! Of course, I immediately am taken back to June 3, 2005 when little Aiden was born - really the two weeks before and all the trips to the hospital and all the drama that went with it - no needles, no blood draws during pre-natal stuff, all the fears and tears and DRAMA! It was a very stressful time for everyone. Of course, the result is this beautiful little boy we have today - the real reward.
Supposedly Sarah knows the concerns and, obviously, she still has all those fears. She said she is starting to counseling this next week to help her deal with it all. I'm happy for her and Paul because they say this is what they want.
She is only a little over a month along and goes to the clinic doc (of course, they have no insurance) this Wednesday for confirmation and then she'll go sign up for Medicaid.
I want to be over-the-top happy and I'm ashamed saying these things and feeling this way.
Please don't share my words with anyone just yet.
That's all for now. Hope you all are doing well and life is being good to you today.
Lots of love,
Lizzie

Well, that is interesting news. I say it is good because that is what is. Sarah has matured and Paul is awesome and it sounds like Sarah took it upon herself to get herself some counseling.
ReplyDeleteIt will all work out. The drama may be there but I bet it is not as intense and you know what to expect and that baby will come out no matter what. You can just in your mind go somewhere else and tune the drama out. Sarah is of age to handle her own drama and you don't have to claim it at this point.
Love you Lizzie!
excellent and very practical and TRUE observation.
ReplyDeleteLove you too Dianie
Sarah called me last night as I was boarding the plane to come home and I congratulated her and Paul. I told her I would call her back today or tomorrow and we could talk some more. Needless to say, I thought back to the experiences of the birth of Aiden, but like you Diane, I feel that Sarah is 5 years older and knows what is ahead of her and is getting counseling to help her deal with her fears. Paul is gentle and understanding and will help her get over the rough spots. And Liz, I do understand your concerns. You cannot help but be concerned.
ReplyDeleteI will post more later. Must get showered and head to make the royalty clothing at the palace. Hope I don't sew my finger together. Didn't get home till nearly 1:00 a.m. and my butt is dragging.
I love you all.
Wow! I think that is great!!! They are a good couple and everything will be fine. I have seen that Sarah has matured since she's been with Paul. This will all be good. Congrats!!!
