I get teary thinking of it. Not the part of getting older or being called Grandma but the pure JOY in seeing Megan holding her baby. Megan and Carl are busy preparing for their new arrival. 9 months filled of excitement, anticipation, sickness, worry, and gratefulness. It's nearing the end. "It's Go Time!"
It is overwhelming all of the things you need for baby. Clothes, bibs, diapers and bottles take over! It was fun sitting in "Nugget's" room and arranging and re-arranging. Folding blankets and hugging teddy bears. I love the baby smell (thinking of washing Aaron's clothes in Dreft - just for a weekend).
We have been blessed by friends who have helped us celebrate baby. Baby showers, shared hand-me-downs and well wishes for Megan and Carl. All of which are greatly appreciated.
Baby girl will be here in a couple of weeks if not sooner. Megan is tired, full and uncomfortable - As Momma's we know that feeling.
Another chapter in our lives have begun.
