They are at the hospital....we wait....

Dan called at eight this morning to tell us Jackie's water broke at 2 a.m. The contractions were coming every 5-7 minutes then. They didn't know yet when they would leave for the hospital. I just found this photo and a few others on his face book posted at 5 PM this evening (just now). They also showed them walking the halls, Jackie walking holding on to the pole of an IV drip. My almost 18 yr old grand daughter at her side; to other friends and Dan all walking together. I was so relieved to see the photos as I'd had no other calls. Waiting is hard; but what they are doing is harder. ;-) Send good thoughts and prayers for an easy birth please, and thanks. Hugs, Grandma Lynnie
