It's in the air....or maybe my belly

CHANGE. I can feel it coming. These are the last few weeks that RJ and I will be just RJ and I. Another person is about to be introduced not only to our family...but to the world. Since we found out that we were going to have a baby we have been preparing. We switched around health insurance, started paying off debts and saving money. I quit my job to prepare to stay home. We have researched everything from birthing methods to how much it will cost to send our child to college. We now have a room set up that is devoted to our coming baby. It is full of all the "necessities" for our little one. It's decoration has been thought about, planned and finally executed. All this we have been doing day to day....doing something baby related almost every day since December, but most of the time I forget what is really happening. We are expanding our family, we are bringing a new life into the world. A person that has never existed before. Unique, special...a gift from God. This little baby that wiggles inside me, and keeps me up at night already, could be anything it wants. A great poet....or a great parent. We get the privilege of watching this new life grow and learn and explore. And we have front row seats. This change is coming, and though I'm not sure all that will come with it, I am so excited for it to start.
