Gratitude

April 12th, 2010

Last night I sat on my couch in silence and reflected on what was one wild week! It was busy, and exhausting, and yet it also provided me with two lovely firsts.

I had two baby showers, my first ever baby showers! They were so much fun! I felt so special and loved!

The gifts John and I were given are definitely worth mentioning because everyone was so incredibly generous and thoughtful. That being said, what I really appreciated was the time these women took out of their lives to celebrate this pending arrival with me. Their excitement was so incredibly touching. It really moved me in a way I wasn’t expecting.

This baby will be raised by a village, there is no doubt. How lucky he will be to have so many vivacious, positive, strong women around him. How lucky I am to have their support.
