silly late night worries

why do i have to be such a worrier?  ever since sunday, when i attended my friend, jess', baby shower, i've been thinking about a conversation i heard there.  one of jess' friends was telling her how difficult it was to leave her toddler, to go to the hospital to deliver her 2nd baby.  she missed him so much and had never been away from him before.  she worried because she didn't know what he'd be doing while she was away at the hospital.  

well....i had never even thought of this before.  a new thing to worry about.  granted, i'm not even pregnant with my 2nd baby....but i can just imagine the emotions i will go through when it is time to leave kennedy to someone's care while keith & i go to the hospital to deliver baby #2.  yikes!  we have been away from kennedy before, so i know that will be okay.  but the fact remains that if i have a c-section again, Lord knows how many days i'll be in the hospital.  eeek!!!  

jess' friend did say that grandma did special things with her toddler....such as they made a scrapbook of all the things they did together while mommy was in the hospital.  then they gave mom the scrapbook as a gift.  i thought that was so sweet!  i hope one of kennedy's 3 grandmas think of something clever & cute like that.  

i am comforted in knowing that by the time baby #2 arrives, kennedy will be 3 years old (if everything goes according to plan).  she should be a bit more stable by then...and dare i say...even happy to be away from us for a couple of days???  fingers crossed! :)
