false alarm...

i was so surprised to get a phone call from my best friend early this morning telling me that her water broke this morning at 1am and that they were on their to the hospital late this morning. you could totally hear the sheer excitement in her voice that she was finally going to meet her new little girl after all these months...as well as the underlying panic of actually giving birth to her (which would scare the crap out of me too)! i totally thought today was the day i was going to rush over to the hospital and be one of the first in line to hold her sweet smelling, little coo-ing ball of perfection, not to mention learn her name which they've been so wonderful at keeping secret from us all...but alas, it was a false alarm. i know she's disappointed, and even a little bit embarrassed to have went all the way to the hospital, but now we're all on high alert and know exactly how to react when the real thing takes place...so i consider this a "test run" and not a "false alarm"...
