Due Date

For those of you who dont know it...today is my due date. I am still here...obviously...My mom says its because Brayden is waiting on Gigi, but I think I've made it just a hair too comfy in my tummy, so as of today I am beginning to poke and prod him more than usual. He seems to have noticed since he has taken to kicking and stretching in response. I think we're gonna have a character on our hands when he gets out!

On a more serious note...today it hit me that I'm going to be a mommy to someone. Someone will soon look to me to take care of their every need and will, for a time, find me to be all knowing and wise (you may laugh now if you like...I find that fact hilarious myself). When I said this to Luke over dinner he just nodded and looked pensive...he was probably thinking about his own role in all of this. Its scary to think that a little life has been entrusted to you. Its like a test and a gift all wrapped up into one tiny little package. If I had to be honest, and I'm sure Luke will agree with me, there is a lot a solace in knowing that not only did we have great role models in how to raise children in our own parents, but that we still have that guidance from them along with lots of love and helping hands from family and friends. It helps to know that you have a whole cheering section behind you rooting you on this journey you're starting. It gives us peace knowing we really arent alone in this.

So this is update on my uterus and my deep thought for the day...maybe even the week depending on how things go in the next few days. Oh...dont I just wish!
