Greetings Cotyledon friends and fam. 
The secret slowly leaked, then boom! I was 37 weeks and on maternity leave! As of today I am 40 weeks pregnant, and trying my best to relax and enjoy these last few moments of pregnancy. We (the whole family really) are prepping and cleaning and ramping up to meet the newest Curtis to our household.
Dr. Brian is holding down the fort in the office, and from what I gather is almost as good as I am at giving you flack for being dehydrated. If he begins to slack, remind him you have thick skin. Probably from being dehydrated…
I know it isn’t the norm these days, but Baby Curtis is in charge, so we really can’t predict when they will join us. However, when that day comes, we will likely have an abrupt closure (because birthing alone isn’t in my birth plan). The following week, we will be closed and then Dr. Brian will be back in the office. 
I ask for your patience as we take this ride. Many of you know our story, and every moment of this experience has been covered in redemption and grace. As always, emergencies and births will be addressed as they come.
My most favorite thing I’ve learned from this experience has been the multitudes of patients, friends, and mentors asking, “how can I pray for you?”
If you are the praying type, I would ask that you pray for God’s will to be done. He’s done a much better job being in control than I ever did.
We will share news when we have it! And as always, thank you for enriching our lives and giving us the opportunity to be a fly on the wall in the miracle of your lives.
