baby no. eight thousand three hundred nintey one

my team leader and fellow first grade teacher, rosemary is having her second son tomorrow. (this is like the millionth baby of people i know!) :)

great name, huh? it's so traditional but modern and totally perfect for this little boy i'm picturing. i'm really excited for her and can't wait to meet the baby.

today was the weirdest feeling just knowing today she was going to leave school like any other day but not be back for 7 weeks (including spring break). i'm feeling a tiny bit selfish wondering what i'll do the whole time she's gone. see, we're neighbors and if i ever have a question or comment or great idea for lunch out, i run next door and spill it. she really is a great help and i'll miss her being there. i can imagine though, that teaching with me probably doesn't compare too much to giving birth to a beautiful baby boy of your very own.

i'm praying now that labor will be good to baby and mama. i just know it will be.
