Phil Called!

Yeah - Phil called last night! He sounded both exhausted and ready to come home for a rest.

I am always amazed at how he can keep going, day in and day out working the crazy hours and keeping his sanity. Let's just say by 3 a.m. or whatever time it was for him, he's a little cynical and cranky. He told me he laid into someone and made them cry.... I know he has no patience for stupidity, and I'm sure that is what had been exhibited by whomever.

We didn't get to talk long, just enough for him to let me know his flight on Sunday is from Kuwait, so I expect him to be in Fayetteville sometime on Monday the 13th. Depending on what time they have an available bed for the labor induction, and how long that process takes, I think he stands a really good chance of witnessing her birth.

My friend Kristen told me that it took about 12 hours for the cervix softening thing to work before they gave her the pitocin went into labor, so, not that I want to sit there for that long waiting, but I won't be in a huge hurry if he's not here.

I'm amazed at how things just seem to be falling in place. Like I told Mom tonight, I obviously have had to plan for many things, including having several plan B's, C's and D's (which are still in place) and no matter what I did or didn't do, things just divinely continue to fall into place, which gives me just an ounce of serenity. Even though I have woken up with several stress dreams lately. Couldn't be because there's a lot going on right now, huh?
