waiting for baby

Now, we're all waiting.  I feel heavier, achier, more heart-burnier.  Sometimes I sleep hard, sometimes I'm not sleeping at all.  I'm walking to Tolga's work on icy roads, but I don't feel unsteady - in fact I'm sure my brother-in-law will fall before I do with is toe stepping and slick bottomed shoes.

Tolga's mom was worried my uterus would get cold because I wasn't wearing socks the other day.  But she didn't push the issue.  Gokhan got teary eyed when he felt a my stomach move.  His dad cried when asking whether I'd spoken to my mom.  (He felt bad, and then started missing his own mother).

And me?  I don't know what to think.  I'm in a foreign country, with foreign people, doing something completely foreign to me.  It's all out of my hands.
