The Devil and Sweet Tea
Aug 25th 2005CindyUnCategorized
First of all, I had to wake up at 6:30AM this morning. Did you know it is light out at 6:30am? I didn’t know this and am sorry that I know it now. Anyway, after my doctor’s appointment, my minivan just took over like it had a mind of its own. It headed straight for Chic-fil-a and there was nothing I could do about it.
Okay, so we both know that’s a lie, but I’m telling the story my way. So while I’m sitting in the drive through line, (because my fat butt is too lazy to park and go in) I’m debating on whether or not to buy my weekly gallon of Sweet Tea. Since I am officially “off” of Sweet Tea I decide I shouldn’t buy the whole gallon as this would make it more difficult for me to not drink it. Duh!
So instead, I buy TWO large Sweet Teas. Yes, I said TWO! Count them with me…ONE…..TWO! One for now and another for well, now. I’m hopeless. Absolutely hopeless. That’s what happens when the doctor tells me I’ve lost TWO pounds - I reward myself with a large Sweet Tea - one for each pound. Because THAT makes sense.
Anyway, so the kids are coming. It’s getting so close. They will be here any day now. Maybe one, maybe two, perhaps even three. I absolutely draw the line at three. Progress is being made at the agency and we’re told that it is going to happen fast. Get ready.
I wonder how I will feel when I see those precious children for the first time? I wonder if we’ll instantly feel a connection or if we’ll fall madly in love at first site. Realistically, I guess we’ll feel pretty awkward at first and maybe even afraid we won’t ever “fall in love” with them. I know it will only be a matter of time.
It’s just a matter of time now.
Aunt T is already spoiling her niece. But don’t worry, if she gets a nephew we’ll trade it in!

I’m expecting to fall in love at first sight because that’s the way I felt with my first two. That may be unrealistic, but after Saturday I’ll know one way or the other!

Come on! — why limit Him — if he wants you to have more than 3 — don’t draw the line. I don’t know why — but something about reading your blog makes me want to act a little ’sassy’, so maybe I should limit my comments. And by the way H has said a lot of cute stuff, I just can’t keep up it all! LOL.
