Waiting : until now to share some very fun news.
Making : our house into a home for a family - slowly, slowly.
Loving : that Peter and I will get to become parents together in a few short months!
Hoping : that we'll be half-way decent at our new gig.
Marveling : at the fact that I'll get to meet this new little person in early May.
Liking : the tremendous excitement and joy our family and friends have shown us.
Wearing : long sweaters, scarves, and scary belly-bands.
Needing : some bigger clothes :)
Drinking : tea, juice, hot chocolate, repeat.
Following : lots of the advice my generous girlfriends have given me (and if you have some to share, please do!).
Thinking : about how much I want to enjoy this short, special phase of life.
Feeling : excited, nervous, joyful, anxious, lucky, and so, so happy.
Oh, this post made me tear up. I'm so, so, so excited for you two and will repeat what I said before: you and Peter are already equipped to be the most loving, smart, thoughtful, interesting parents for this child. I, for one, can't wait to meet this little one!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I wish I had some advice to give...perhaps you'll have tips to share with me when my time comes!
