Mary Ellen's c-section to deliver the twins was scheduled for today.   Lets keep her and Dave and the babies in our prayers. I know they will let us know any news as soon as they can!

I received extremely good news through our local homeschooling group about Mary Ellen, but I'm not sure if I'm at liberty to post it!!!

Oh, Alice, this is killing me! I bet they're born! Where IS Dave? Doesn't he know how many women are waiting, non-too-patiently, to hear the news?!

Patience is a virtue. Patience is a virtue.

            

Have we been patient long enough?

Can't wait to get the inside scoop. It'll be so .

Here is a sweet little poem I found and thought I would share as all await the news (of course, double the "ten" in here to "twenty" .)

A Baby's Feet
by Algernon Charles Swinburne

A baby's feet, like sea-shells pink,
Might tempt, should heaven see meet
An angel's lips to kiss, we think,
A baby's feet.

Like rose-hued sea-flowers toward the heat
They stretch and spread and wink
Their ten soft buds that part and meet.

No flower-bells that expand and shrink
Gleam half so heavenly sweet,
As shine on life's untrodden brink
A baby's feet

Still praying,
Stacy in MI
(Pete says, me too.)
