It's the old Watched Pot syndrome ... your poor daughter has probably had it up to here with being pregnant! Hopefully the baby will come in time for you to do double-duty as a mom. And just think, you can show baby pictures to everybody at graduation!

Man, I wish my son had that test today. His is tomorrow. I have not heard from him pretty much since last Friday. Only a one word response the other day when I asked him if he was ok. the reply was "NO". UGH. it's so hard not knowing. I'm sure he is a stressed to the max. Good thing is that I see he has watched a couple of shows on Netflix this week, to unwind a little, so I know he's alive.

It's 9:00 central time right now, which means 10 in Charleston, so I guess the Friday test is just about over. I'm so glad to see that other sons seem to be stressing out, because I know mine is. He said they had their last day of new stuff to learn last Tuesday, ever since it's just been review, review, review. He said he'll get in as many hours as he can over the weekend studying, then a final review Monday, then it will be Tuesday and they can all breathe a huge sigh of relief when it's over.
I breathed my sigh of relief last night when I got home from work and saw that my coins had arrived. I'm so pleased with them!
