I'm 39 weeks today!

By right, Baby ought to be due next Friday... .but we never know do we?

Had my weekly check-up yesterday. I'm now 74.55kg. Argh... anymore weight gain and i'd have put on a total of 20kg!!! Sheesh. I just hope the weight goes away as easily as it came on!

Baby's weight is still about the same and he/she has engaged already, meaning it's in position... so I'm pretty much just waiting for time. The doctor did say though that as long as Baby shows that he/she is comfy, we'll just leave him/her inside... after all, Baby is a human too!

Baby was rather naughty yesterday though... mischievous, I would say.... we were monitoring the heartbeat again, and Baby chose to play a game of hide-and-seek with us... so half the time was spent trying to find the heartbeat again! It's funny how Baby managed to do that despite having so very little space in my tummy!

Hmmm... OTC is this weekend. I wonder how the kids will fare.
Though Darling and myself are not directly in the picture, which feels really weird by the way... yet, we'll probably still stop by just to check things out. Somehow, there's never been a camp in which we both didn't participate, whether directly or indirectly. And much as we wanna let go... yet certain things don't seem to be done in the way we'd prefer it. But well, since we've already chosen to let go.... there's only so much we can do or say. =)

I just hope the kids gain what they need to gain out of this camp. It's less than 3 months to the end of our time. The future, though seemingly uncertain.... yet, I somehow see the end, the possibility of the outcome... and I must say that I ain't too optimistic about it.

Not that I see the end of Legion coming... it probably won't... not this soon.... I'm more worried about the legacy that the few of us have wanted to leave behind... Darling, Nigel and me came from the same era.... the rest came a little while later..... in the 11 years we've been around... there hasn't been much changes in the way Legion is run... the way camps are done.... I fear that all these would disappear after we're gone and the new generation takes over... simply because they aren't as certain or clear of what they want.

I do agree that change is always necessary in any organization.
It's only then that there will be growth.
The leaders must always be open to suggestions and new ideas.
Things can't stay the same forever.
Yet it's important to remember how it all began, what's important to the ministry, and what made it work all along.
And from there, search for the balance, and use what's best for the members........
Yet, like I always say,
It's all in God's hands......
I just hope our kids stay firm to what makes us who we are...
To not sway to the opinions of others who have no better idea.....
And to keep what makes us special.............
To keep the legacy that we've fought so hard to keep all these years.......
