I'd like to say that someone was thinking of me and my pitiful state of last days of pregnancy and wanted to brighten my day. But that would be a lie.They're actually from my sweet little neighbor, who knocked on our front door at 7:20 this morning, all shaken up because her dog had killed a huge rat and left it for her in her yard. She needed assistance because, well, she doesn't like dead rats. They make her "want to wretch", she said. I think that's a fancy way to say "throw up".
But anyway, with pleading eyes, she asked me to send my husband over to help her out. So I sent him. And for his trouble, she sent me a bundle of red roses from her yard. Probably picked close to the spot where the rat was.
They sure are pretty. And they do smell nice.
Which does make a pregnant woman smile.

I'm with your neighbor. I hate any variety of mouse/rat/rodent. Dead or alive. And like you, I love roses. So there ya go.
Terri,
When are you being induced? Can I do anything for you?
Has it happened? Where are you? I know you would've updated if you were home...right? You aren't there, are you? Why aren't you answering these questions as I type them? UGGHH!!
