It's true

Yes, it's true. I'm growin a baby in there. I'm past the point of maybe she is maybe she isn't. (At least I hope so) This picture was taken by the lovely Oleesa about three weeks ago. And yes, I feel I'm much bigger now. I'm so excited for her to get here. I lay in bed at night and think how wonderful it's going to be to actually see her after all of these months of silent nudges. We're are so blessed. sigh.

p.s. I know my hair is much too dark for me. I'm fixing it tomorrow, I promise.

Nice quote

“Home is a place where we welcome each family member with a sense of belonging. Home is a place where we are free to bring the fullness of our womanhood to bear in every sphere of our life. A woman’s place is in the heart- the heart of her husband, the heart of her children and the heart of her home. Home is a refuge we create for every family member. Homemaking is a call to express fully our personhood and thereby enable every member of the family to understand his or her dignity and worth. I am the queen of my realm. I am the heart of my home.”

~Kimberly Hahn

I love this quote. I don't necessarily think I have accomplished all of this but it's a good goal to shoot for.

p.s. A twelve year old told me I was hot yesterday. He couldn't see my stomach but I still think it counts. It counts, right?

p.p.s. It took me five minutes to get my boots on this morning. And I have a feeling I'm going to need some help getting them off. I just keep telling myself it's all normal.

Year 3

Three years ago today, I started forever with my best friend.
I've experienced so much happiness in those years, it's staggering.
Still in love.
Still very happy.
So much to be grateful for.
Love you husband.
Lots.
