Ohhhhh Baby!!!!!

she's stolen our hearts
. Posted by Picasa
People ask me.........."what does it feel like?"
Its hard to put into words! its butterflies fluttering in your stomach all day and all night, its missing your turn 3 times in a row, because you cant concentrate on your directions (watch out Atlanta!), its lists and more lists of all the things you need to do, scrolling through your head, when your trying to sleep or carry on a conversation, its wondering.........Gee, what does a baby that age eat????, its telling the dog, "you're gonna have a sister!", its looking at her picture 50 bazillion times a day, and feeling sheer delight every time you do, its closing your eyes, and imagining that you can feel the weight of her in your arms, its hearing your husband say "honey, we're really gonna celebrate mothers day this year!", its the realization that you are now responsible for the happiness, health, and well being of an innocent little person, its getting e-mails from complete strangers congratulating you or telling you that their child is from the same orphanage, its head spinning, and stomach churning, and heart bursting magic.
there. I guess I did have some words for it.
