My daughter Mercy just called me two hours ago. Her baby is showing signs of readiness to meet the parents and the new world. She went to the doctor today. She started having contractions and is dilated to 4 cm.

Hooray! I’m so happy for her. I’m home for a few days to take care of some business right now, but we are going back to Portland, Oregon tomorrow morning. We’ll meet our grandchild in the next day or two.

I pray for a smooth delivery.
