WOW!

We went for a routine visit today and came away with a scheduled C-section just hours away. The sonogram showed two over 6lb. babies. Joel was head down, but Leah has flipped and is now breech. Then, we discovered I am dialated to a 4 already. After some tears and prayers and consultations with our midwife and the doctor, we decided to go ahead with the recommended C-section. This way, I don't risk both a vaginal delivery and a C-section and we will avoid an emergency C-section. It feels very strange to know in a few hours we will be holding our 2 little ones. My faith is again stretched to release control to the One who created all of us. I am so grateful for His grace and mercy. We appreciate your prayers. We'll post pictures and info. soon. The delivery is scheduled for 4:30 this afternoon.
