The Abandonment Game

Rose is breaking her siblings' records by being three days past her due date. It's amazing how difficult it is to wait patiently for this baby's arrival. You'd think her due date were set in stone, or some edict being breached, by the way we've all been in turmoil over THREE DAYS LATE. I'm trying to remind myself that this is a perfect Lenten opportunity to Patiently Accept God's Will, since this is completely out of my control. Of sacrifices, this is probably *the* most desirable, right? Having to let go of earthly plans and put off impending joy for a few days, essentially. Abandonment is the game. Abandonment for spiritual wimps.

Plus, who wouldn't want to savor the current baby for a few more days?

Oh sweet David, your little life is about to turn upside down.
