I love roller coasters, but...

Egads, my emotions are worn out. My childern saw me cry for perhaps the first time ever as I tried to explain some of the changes our family is about to experience. I shared good things and tough things. Then, I tried to help them understand what tomorrow is going to be like for our new little one. I tried to help them imagine what it would be like if tomorrow, mommy and I took them to a stranger, handed them off, and said, "Goodbye. We will never see you again and you will never see anything you have known ever again." So, tomorrow is a day we have geared up for for several years. Wonderful! It will also be one of the hardest days any of us have ever experienced. Horrible. When does the coaster end?
