Place your bets!

**From Devin at the beginning of November**


MESSAGE
11/04/13
 As you know, Emily is pregnant.  She is now full term @ 37 weeks.  Her official due date is November 24th.  She is uncomfortable.  The question is when will this little person come out to play?
For those who care to challenge nature and predict the future, send me your guess...or I should say, send me your truth.  I am aggregating the data old school via email (hotmail needs the traffic) and I will hold secret so as not to sway anyone.  Note: Emily and I have already cast our truths - and they differ. 
What do you win?  An asterisk on our life-changing day.  Cue ominous thunderclaps.  And your name in lights....in our blog.  Cue the ouuuus and ahhhhs!!!
Per our physician, Emily's season has now commenced, and the next five weeks are open for baby birthing.  With this email in hand, you know what we know.  
 Dust off your tarot cards and fake Jamaican accent.

I actually got your email!  Imagine that!  I am not a seer nor do I often offer sage advice regarding nature as she is a fickle one.  That being said, I hope the wee one waits until we get his great-aunt ("auntie") moved in next week. So, Bonnie and I both say we will harken his arrival on the 17th...one week prior to due date. Then again, Bonnie's bday is November 9th but she thinks that would be too much to ask :):):)
