Hmmm.

So, once again it's been a while...and I'm okay with that.

I've considered eliminating this blog all-together, but just can't make myself do it. I'm okay with that, too.

It looks as though tomorrow I will be giving birth to my second child, my second daughter. I've had such an amazing week off from work to spend with my first, it's been a precious week. And tomorrow I will see the face of another source of overwhelming blessings and an array of emotions. I'm thankful that I know more than I did the first time, that I am so much more aware of all that I have to look forward to. It's good to see that despite the seemingly endless nights, your children begin to bless and teach you in bigger ways than you ever thought possible at such a young age. They are mirrors of the good and the bad and I'm thankful to have grown right along with them on many levels.

I know that I will be frantic many days, my house will never be as clean as I would like it, and that my schedule and my mood may not be what I'd planned on...

but I do know that it is exactly what HE wants for me.
