Out of State Possibilities

When I woke up this morning, my thoughts were about my daughter-in-law who is waiting for the birth of her second child.  The anticipation of a baby being born, when it will happen, is it a boy or a girl, are all thoughts that must be running through her head.  My son and his wife have the cutest little fellow who is thirteen months old, so this little fellow will help pass the time until the new little one arrives.  I guess the key word here is "anticipation." Anticipation for the baby and my anticipation not too long ago, about the days at Granite State College and all my thoughts that ran through my head. Will I ever finish this degree, can I get through business statistics and will I pass, are all past worries that went through my mind.  Well, I did pass, I did get through business's statistics and I did get my degree.  At the time it seemed like it would never happen, such a long distance away and today, it seems so long ago.  I think we need to savor the moments we are in; enjoy the moments and move forward with grace. A week later, still no baby so it is my job to call her, help her get through all the anticipation anxiety.
