Home Again, Home Again, Jiggety Jig.....

Ahhh! Home again! To walk into this house feels like a MANSION compared to what we have been living in in Canadian! There truly is no greater feeling than walking into your "home" after a period of time away. Whether it's days, weeks, or even hours; to me, it always feels good to be "home". As I was packing our things this morning, Jeremy made the comment "By the way your packing....it's like you're not ever coming back"

Well....then it all sank in. I wasn't going back, or probably not. My weekly visits are starting with my OB this week, My due date is 1 month away, and with Jaylee arriving 2 weeks earlier than planned, I just feel it's a tad bit risky to be almost 4 hours away from my Dr. I think if I was more of a laid back, whatever type person....I wouldn't be very bothered by this. But the fact that I am terribly OCD, and I just have a bizarre image of my water breaking in Canadian, and having to load all of us up in the car, and getting Jaylee to someone, plus dealing with her going down the road while Daddy is driving 90 mph dodging the deer and me contracting and holding the "oh shit" handle in the car all the while. So.... I really think it's just best that I just remain an hour away from my Dr, along with several people here in town I can call to drop Jaylee off too, and just pray that Jeremy arrives on time, safe and sound!

So, today was hard to leave Jeremy. I really thought those days were over, temporarily, since it was summer, but then I realized that I wasn't going back there until the baby came! It was hard to leave... Of course he will be coming home on the weekends, what few we have left before her arrival! And I may sneak back up between the next two appointments....we'll just have to see! But it was still hard! We had such a great time this past week just being a family. We had our nightly suppers and play time afterwards---and it made me want that all over again. I guess growing up with family suppers every single night--you start taking it for granted after a while. Yet now, I appreciate it tremendously. Nothing makes me happier than a family supper together. Happiness used to be going shopping and buying a new pair of shoes, or clothes....now it's the little things that truly make me happy. Yet, you never realize it until you don't have it anymore.....
