However, during this time - some amazing things are definitely highlighted for me - like all the support from family & friends. My sweet friend Tanya (who JUST moved to Michigan) sent me a care package - small gifts, carefully thought out and wrapped, with a sweet pick me up note for me to open during a difficult day / when I want some chocolate, or something comforting to read. She prepped and sent this in the midst of her move across the country with a one year old of her own! How amazing! (THANKS TANYA!)
Just another reminder of the blessings in life. The blessing of all the friends who have gone before me (speaking strictly of motherhood) and are so willing to lend an ear, send some support/encouragement, send a note/text to say hello, and pray during this time of preparation. Thank God for family and friends like Tanya!
Speaking of being 22 weeks in....the belly has POPPED (well..at least I think it has) - and I finally succumbed to the fact that I don't fit into my clothes. SO - a new wardrobe (well...enough to really get me through the week for now :)). The baby is definitely moving around more and more each day, and I am hoping soon that Andy will be able to feel him too.
Thanking God for special gifts of friends, family, and life!
What a cute baby bump!
