Patience Mommy

This is quite the girl. It's clear to me that she will be teaching me many, many lessons during our life together. Today's lesson; patience.
I awoke to three mighty contractions a little less than 10 minutes apart and I thought "whoa, away we go". After the third one, I showered quickly and Craig and I were rushing around getting bags together, but, alas, 7:01 am came and went without the expected contraction.
It's now just after 11 am and nothing, nada, zip. This is the third day with false labor and I'm realizing that this could be a long process.
I find it fascinating that this whole labor and delivery involves my readiness, Mya's readiness and some miraculous force deciding "it's time". Neither Mya nor I can force this and we just have to wait until it is time. Patience Mommy.
