Post you comments!

Selamat Pagi! Good Morning! Upon the advisement of my wise father, I have resolved to improve my punctuation and capitalization habits. I have to admit, as a member of the e-mail generation I have gotten so comfortable with sending e-mail that it has become a bit like a conversation to me. A conversation full of run-on sentences, weak sentence structure and ... if you know what I mean. So, I resolve to improve with the intention being that I would like for the blog to be easier to follow and understand. So, here we go! With that said, it is morning. I wanted to make sure you all knew you could post comments, b/c I had no idea:) My dad turned me on to this. I am just getting the hang of this "blogging" thing. Just click on comment at the end of the post and let me know your thoughts and feelings. You don't have to send an e-mail separately, you can just "post a comment".
After sleeping at the clinic, so as not to miss any of the action, we had an Ibu (mama) arrive at midnight, 1st baby, 2cm. We told her to rest and we didn't hear a peep from her until i went in to check on her at 5:30am. Now we have her up and walking and she seems a little nervous, she is going to need some TLC. Then at about 6am we received an 18 year old Ibu who is at 7cm with broken waters. The young ones go quickly around here, and I think in general. Her mother (the grandmother) told me she hopes I can help her daughter give birth b/c she is so young she doesn't know what to do. I told her that her daughter's body is working just fine right now and that we should trust that her body knows instinctually what to do. Sometimes, as we age, our minds get in the way of what is best...when we are young we are more primal and raw...and that is excellent for birth! I am going to poke around and check on everyone. It is raining now so it is a beautiful morning for a birth...or two! xoxo

Thanks, Sugar, that makes a big difference in readability for me. It's 9:57 PM Wednesday here, one of the few times of day that we're both awake--oops, correction, I guess you're liable to be awake just about any time of night.

Love you a lot,

Dad
