Anticipation--Updated!
One of my closest, dearest friends is in labor as I type this and the emotions swirling inside of me are oh so familiar. I am drowning in anticipation for the phone call that says "She's here, please come meet her" and also feeling a teensy, itsy bit jealous over what my friend is experiencing right now. It's because I know. I know what's to come for her and her husband and it's amazing, miraculous, terrifying, thrilling, and awe-inspiring. I so want to be there with her, remembering, reliving the moments of labor and childbirth. But all I can do is wait at home for the phone call and say this in silence, hoping it reaches her: may labor and childbirth be all that you imagined it to be and may you and your newborn daughter make it through safely.

Oh, so sweet... gosh, it's a whole different thing now, isn't it? Waiting for others to have babies, I mean. Where before I was impatient, I am now literally on the edge of my seat because I know what's happening!! :) Great post.
Welcome, baby girl!
