ready. set. wait

My little girl will be on her way into this world soon.

Soon is a relative term. :-)

I only rest grateful that she has been carried to term and that I worry very little for her health. She is always moving. I feel her so much more than I felt my little 'Zekiel.

My health is better than last time. By far. Such a wonderful lack of pain . . . and the most wonderful husband in the world who makes every other pain and discomfort feel less than it is. I fall asleep every night so grateful to be his wife and I know beyond all doubt that the Lord blessed me so far beyond what I deserve that it is altogether humbling.

The sweater that I have begun making for her (pictured above) should also be finished "soon." :-) I love the design of this pattern. So much character in the texture and colors. It is being made to fit her when she is a year. Hopefully it will have two long sleeves and all of the finishing touches long before then.

Ready to meet the little girl whom I strangely love already . . .
