_hands **April R** some tea and a chocolate cookie_

All will be good, all will be good, all manner of things will be good.

Just think, by tomorrow night, you will be holding your new baby. She is going to be stubborn and willful and always later than you want, but she will also be beautiful and clever and just the daughter you want.

Not to mention that after tomorrow, you will be done puking.

Before I got the epidural I thought I was going to pass out. I kept crying and apologizing for being such a wimp
