Rainbows

It's a gray, rainy day in northwestern Illinois, but there's sunshine in my heart. Karina has reached 32 weeks in her pregnancy, and the twins appear to be doing well. They've switched the IV medication to oral, which doesn't control her contractions as well but is less harsh to her body. The plan is to keep watching and waiting.

The other thing that brightens my day is that PR will be joining me here, definitively, on Christmas eve. Separation isn't easy, even if it's only a two-hour drive. I am looking forward to our new, adventure-filled, life together here.

    Glad to see that she's doing so well. This has to have been an off balanced time for you.

    That is wonderful about Karina!
    Now unpack your camera and show us where you are.
    I hadn't realized you two weren't moving at the same time.

    I can see PR right now, riding his horse over the hill towards your new farm....The orange glow of the setting sun casting his shadow downwards....
    Welcome home PR.....

    I've prayed for the new babies.

    I stopped by to say Merry Christmas. I really have enjoyed your blog this year.
