I had a good weekend with Eugene and the kids. I was able to leave again both yesterday and today. I was even able to go to church with them today! We also got to get in a couple rounds of Settlers with Scott and Liz last night, which was fun even though Eugene beat us both games. The goodbyes with the kids are definitely getting better, although it's never easy for me.
The babies are both still looking good, despite some minor decelerations by Baby "B" a couple times. The nurses continue to reassure me that the readings still look good over all though. Liz commented last night that Eugene and I seem so at peace about things, and we really are at this point. I'm not sure why, except that it's an answer to prayer, because I certainly was not at peace about things earlier in the pregnancy. I felt like I was constantly wondering if the babies were ok or if I would move the wrong way if something would happen to them, etc., etc. But at this point I can truly say that I feel at peace about this pregnancy. That's not to say that if something were to happen I wouldn't have a hard time with it, but for today anyhow I am thankful that God has given me peace that He is in control and I can trust Him, regardless of the outcome.
I keep thinking about this verse:
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." -Philippians 4:6-7
So true!!
