{Nine weeks}
The familiar
Waves of giddy
washing over me
A body already
slipping into a rounded shape
Daydreaming and wondering
who is inside
First trimester hormones
Messing with my emotions
Tears of frustration; tears of joy
Sometimes mingling in the same moment
An expanding love
saturating my being
exhaustion accentuated
catching naps when I can
The unfamiliar:
A peace far greater
than in any other pregnancy
A holding loosely
to things not mine
An inquisitive four year old
who wants all the details
A hunger that distracts
most hours of the day
Time flying
So fast already
So much the same and so much different. I've done this a few times before, but it never loses it's fascination for me! Treasuring the memories.

You are such a beautiful girl, and how happy you look in that photo, well I could probably never put words to it! So sweet, so darlin! I am just SO HAPPY for you friend!
Wendi, I'm SO happy for you...beautiful picture! Love how you captured all the thoughts/feelings/emotions of being newly pregnant. This was one of my favorite verses this pregnancy Ex 14:14 - it talks about the Lord fighting our battles and we just have to "hold our peace" I learned much about that this pregnancy...speaking of...Judah arrived Friday weighing in at 8 pounds 4 ounces, 19 1/14 ounces. I still remember your sweet comment when I announced my pregnancy with him.
Rejoicing with you!
