Today day marks one month till our baby is due. One month! It still feels surreal, even though I have gained over 30 pounds and have a huge belly... hard to imagine that there will be a baby at the end of all this and that a new family is coming together.

Its amazing how far D. and I have come in our communication skills and how strong our determination to be good parents/a strong family is. Involuntary change and commitment aren't either of our cup of tea but this situation is so different then anything we have been though that we have both been challenged to love each other/our family at a newly unselfish level and it has turned onto a truly beautiful future instead of something to be scared of.

At the same time as this huge change has been happening I started a new Etsy store to sell vintage or just unique items I find at thrift stores. Its been really fun, we feel like its a treasure hunt now when we go looking for things to sell, and the response has been pretty good! Its been interesting because my This Blue Wing sales are almost always to people who I know, Walden Road however, is the opposite! Only 2 out of 23 sales have been to people I know! Never a dull moment around here, good thing we like to stay busy!

So I'm feeling incredibly blessed tonight, and excited about the next few months, well years really... I feel blessed by all the people who have been sharing this crazy time with me, my family, friends. Blessed by D. who takes such good care of me and who I am watching turn into a dad and man I can truly respect, with a creative mind that inspires me and will keep me growing for years! And in awe that in less then a month I will have tiny man in my arms!
I love you so much, and am very happy and excited to have gone threw everything with you. Thank you for letting me in. Every month is going to be more fun and exciting from here on out. Treasure every moment because they go by faster and faster! I can't wait to meet my nephew! And his daddy :)
ReplyDeleteLife's challenges can produce beautiful results when we let them :) God's blessings on all three of you and I am so thankful to be an extended part of your new familyness. Looking forward to January 11!
