10 weeks and counting

So, there is only 10 more weeks until my due date (actually a little less). These days have been full of emotional outbreaks. It actually only started yesterday, but still...one day full of hormonal juice and it feels like a million years. Joe has been a prince among princes. I love him so much for kissing my emotional boo-boos. I also love Jeannie for not thinking I am completely insane.

I leave for Texas tomorrow, and just in the knick of time. Now, I can cause my parents the kind of wondrous hormonal activity they last experienced during my teenage years. And everyone is clapping with joy!

hahahahhahahahhahahahahah!

ee cummings - i carry your heart...

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)

i fear
no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

reminder from my big brother

1 Peter 5:7

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Thank you oopa.

ABC pilot talk show

It was great fun, but extremely tiring. Now I know that all "reality" is truly made up. We think that celebrities look gorgeous in an effortless way, but it is not true. It is all smoke and mirrors. And any reality that you ~think~ you are seeing on TV is also...well, just not what it appears. Regardless, it was an experience I am glad to have had. Plus, I got another gig to put on my resume and a pretty dress to boot!

they just don't tell you...

So I have this lovely book (given as a gift from dear friends of mine), and I have been doing lots of research from the very beginning of this pregnancy, but...

No one shares about other things, like the emotional component, feeling like you just will never be ready, the fact that we ~will~ never be ready.

I suppose it is also learning to just take things one day at a time. But, I really feel quite tired. Taking deep breaths and trying to spend more time in prayer.
