Tuesday, January 26, 2021: Release Day!

 My phone rang at 7:30 a.m. this morning.  I jolted up, wide awake. It was a video call. I half expected it to be Taylor, asking if I would come upstairs and hang out with Grace. Grace is an early riser. Taylor is very pregnant and is happy to let me take over early mornings.


I groaned. But when I reached for my phone, I saw Julia's name. And instantly I knew! 


Andrew was due to be released this morning at 6:30 a.m.


I turned on my lamp and answered the phone. And there was my son on the screen. He had a face mask on.


"Hi Mom!" he said cheerily.

"You're out!" I squealed.


"Yup, I got out at 6:30 a.m." He said.  He told me Julia, and Baby Andrew were with him at Walmart.


He pointed the phone at Baby Andrew. He was sitting up in the shopping cart. He had a big gtin on his face.


I think we all will have big grins on our faces for a long time.


13 months.  Done.


Time for the next chapter of our lives.


So happy!
