In a few short weeks, I should be on my way to Durham for the birth of my grandson. His name will be Steven McArthur, after my brother.
My daughter, Beth, calls more than a few times a day to keep me updated on her progress. She called me at work on Friday to say:
"I think you should know, Mom, I feel like something is going to happen today."
"Like..what? Why?"
"I don't know, I just feel weird. You're on standby, right?"
"Right..."
Well, the weekend has passed and nothing weird has happened so far. I'm not sure how my boss will react to a last minute request for vacation time, but frankly, I'm looking forward to going.
It has been a long summer. A full week of different scenery will be delicious.
