Rocking and Sunshine

After singing You are my Sunshine at bedtime, Harrison climbed onto my lap and for the first time in years I rocked him to sleep. It was truly a precious (and priceless) moment.

It's been a rough pregnancy...

I never quite understood how a pregnant woman could be so ready to speed up her pregnancy until my pregnancy with Bagel #2. This pregnancy has been tough! I feel like I have been pregnant for A LOT longer then 34 weeks. Daily I experience being content one moment and then find myself in tears. I feel as though I am carrying around a huge very sensitive bowling ball that is constantly on the move.

Seeking comfort in my family and friends has been amazing. I often step back and lift my head to God with thankfulness-

1. Though the emotional moments feel like as thought they last a long time, it does pass.
2. Deep breathes does wonders...even when the air isn't quite so fresh in Hyderabad. 
3. Technology is amazing for staying connected with my family and friends. 
4. Even in the deepest loney times...I am not alone, God is always with me.
