TODAY'S THE DAY! I'VE BEEN WAITING LONG ENOUGH!!!!!

There's never been a question in my mind that I wanted kids
( . . . still quite debatable exactly how many, but no question we wanted some).

After moving here and watching all the kids run around the neighborhood, I was excited to discover from a neighbor that evidently having children "is in the water . . ."

And, wouldn't you know it, they were right.











Let me tell you, I stared at those test results for one hour straight . . . just to make sure my eyes weren't deceiving me. I walked away more than 10 times only to come right back to look at it again and again.




VERY impatiently, I waited on Grady to get home . . .




. . . and you better believe I was secretly there waiting with the camera for his very first reaction.

(I've never seen someone smile so much.)




I'm not so sure it's hit either of us how drastically our lives have just changed.

Sure, my wine glass has regretfully gone back in the cabinet and Sushi Yoshi has been put on the back burner . . . but FOR GOODNESS SAKE, there's a whole new human being entering our lives! It's almost too incredible to imagine what is happening even this very moment!

There is no doubt, GOD IS GRAND!

AND . . . as if all this weren't exciting enough . . .
There's a nursery to be decorated. :)
