Pregnant and grateful




So here is a progression some what of my pregnancy. I am just beyond elated to be pregnant and I want to show it. I am so grateful for this opportunity we have been given, to welcome a heavenly spirit into our family. I pray everyday that everything works out and that she joins us healthy and strong. In the last couple months, I have learned so much about love, life, and purpose. I had no idea that I was capable of loving this little person inside of me soo much, without ever seeing her or holding her in my arms. I didn't know that watching my husband's love for this baby grow with every kick and nudge that he sees and feels would make me feel closer to him than ever. We brought home some baby equipment and I loved watching him excitedly open the boxes, and piece together every detail of the equipment, with thought and care making sure it will do its job in keeping his baby safe. I couldn't believe how much joy it brought me to see the anticipation and joy in his face. The excitement and nerves we are experiencing right now are a blessing and something we will never feel the same way again. I have grown so much as a person in realizing the purpose of life, our relationships, and the little things we do everyday to progress our earthly purpose. I feel like although the years I have spent making the life events of others come to pass for my career, were very fun and fulfilling to an extent, I allowed myself to get dangerously close to losing sight of the reasons we are placed on this earth and gaining distance between my loved ones and myself. I am so grateful for my family and friends, and for my patient and loving God.
