well, hello October!

this is it. the final month of my pregnancy.

it's been rough.

i've been sick.

i've survived all year to get to october.

i've complained.

i've been miserable.

tonight my heart changed though.

i feel different...excited to welcome this child into the world.

a child God created and is loaning to us!

she is precious...even if housing her made me ill for months on end.

amazing.

i have friends who are hurting and hanging on not because they feel a little nauseous but, for more serious reasons.

i'm thankful that God knows and God hears. He cares and He loves.

God has used so many people to reach me this year, to pull me in and care for me.

i kicked off my month of "savoring" by taking my kids to see their "gg nana".

they, well one, is always naughty when visit.

he's well known amongst nana's roomies!

look at this picture and tell me who you think i'm talking about....

i know gg nana savored our visit...even if it made me anxious!

***

it's october and i only feel signs of baby. not fall.

it's hot.

humidity doesn't make me want to bake.

or drink pumpkin spice latte's.

or cuddle up with a blanket.

or pick apples.

i'm waiting for the real fall...
