We received our Census 2010 in the mail this week. Normally this would not be a big deal... You get the form in the mail, fill it out and mail it back. Right? Well, I opened it and cried. Silly? Yes, I suppose it was. It asks you to report each person living in your home on April 1, 2010. For a brief moment, I was overwhealmed with crazy emotions. I was reminded of one year ago right now... I was in the hospital. My water had broken. I was on strict bedrest trying not to go into labor. I missed my girls and husband terribly. I had been in bed for almost 5 months. I was not certain that the baby would make it.
I get to fill out my Census 2010. I get to report that all 5 of us are living in our home on April 1, 2010. I get to report that the baby is alive and well.
What a difference a year makes...
