joy and sadness

i'm overwhelmed with joy...one of my best friends is having her first baby RIGHT NOW. she is in mississippi...and i am in nevada...i am sooo sad that i am missing this event...i love this baby girl already, even though i am not there to welcome her into this world. kainsley, i love you and i can't wait to see you. heather, life will never be the same in the most wonderful, crazy way you can imagine. you are one of the most important people in my life, and i love you like you are my sister. shane, your manly world is going to turn into the world of a princess, and you will love every minute of it. i miss all three of you so much. i knew that being away from home would be hard, but i never dreamed i would want to be there as badly as i do today. i love your sweet family - sarah
