<\/p>\n

Summer has ended. Don’t get me wrong, the weather hasn’t changed, but Alyssa has gone back to school. I wonder if she realizes that she will be doing this for 15+ years. She did great today. She woke up excited and it lasted all the way to the classroom. She gave her teacher a hug (she had her last year) and kissed me, kissed Megan and waved “bye”. It was pretty much that easy. I think she will have great teachers this year and I am looking forward to another year.<\/p>\n

While Alyssa was hitting the books, or maybe just the playground, Megan and I went for 36 week check. Same routine: ultrasound, NST and checkup with doctor. Megan again scored perfect for her movement, breathing, tone – test and was estimated by her incredibly talented doctor to be around 6lb 3oz. The plan stands to check me next week and then the following week, 20th, schedule the amnio and start induction. So basically 2 weeks from tonight, I could be holding little miss Megan in my arms. AH! What a wonderful thought. The family has been visiting all day, Alyssa held and loved on her new sister and has now gone to bed, the nurses have checked Megan over and everything is perfect, and now I, her mother, have all night long to hold her, kiss her and look at her beauty. To enjoy the beautiful gift God has given us again. . .<\/p>\n
