Blessings

So first off, good news: The at home medicine doesn't give me many side effects. Bad news, it's really hard to stay in bed when you feel fine! The meds are definately working though. My contractions haven't come back. I can feel when it's worn off and my body is trying to start again. I think Logan is going to be like me. He's decided he wants to come now and he'll do anything to get his way. (I think I'm in big trouble if that's true!)
Blessings. God works in mysterious ways. I never thought that being stuck in bed would make me feel so blessed. I can't count the number of people that have offered help and prayers. Those that live here in Wisconsin and those of you throughout the country. I can definatly feel the power of your prayers and I thank you. I didn't realise how many true friends I had here in Wisconsin. I am very amazed at the number of friends who have steped up and helped out. I tend to think I'm alone here, but I'm not. This has been a good oportunity to humble myself and let others serve me. That's not always easy for me, I love to serve, but I'm not the greatest at accepting service.
The girls have done very well. Much better than I thought. I know it's because the spirit is with them helping them out, so once again thankyou for your prayers. Today they are at the daycare where I work. It was hard to drop them off when I'm not there, but I know it will be better for them. They are with people that love them and with their friends. Tomorrow I go to the doctor again, so we'll see what she has to say. I've been very good and taken the meds so I hope that counts. My family is coming up here late Saturday night (YAAAAYYY! So excited!) And then I should only have until Tuesday on bed rest. The only day (by myself) left is Friday and I have a bunch of offers, so I can call someone if the girls get too restless. Thanks again for all your concerns.

Hey sweetie,
We love you so much. So sorry that you're having this little trial. Just think of it as something to hold over Logan's head when he's a bratty teenager. Something along the lines of "I stayed in bed for many a day so you would be born healthy and strong, so you better be home by curfew mister!"

Just a thought. :D
