Happy tears

I just read the update from Mr. InBetween ("Oh Shit, He's Back") that today is the big day for him and the Mrs. I'm so excited and happy for them that tears are streaming down my face. I know them both IRL ever since I first met BigDog on IVFC, and we discovered that we both lived in Hoboken. So I've seen their struggles and know how much they've been through. I just spoke to Mrs. InBetween yesterday - she gave me a call to help me pass the time on bed rest. Help ME pass the time? I was getting antsy after 24 hours and she had been on bed rest for 10 WEEKS! That is so crazy. But she did a fantastic job of keeping those babies nice and snuggled in for the duration - all the way to 36 weeks, which is amazing. I can't wait to hear all about it, and hopefully to see those babies soon.

I am still in bed this morning, milking my bed rest as long as I can, although I am ready to get up. Just a little longer and then I'll head down for breakfast, pack up and head out to the airport. I'm really looking forward to getting home; to the new apartment, to the kitties, to my J. And to some day having our own happy tears.
