I feel silly sometimes.
I mean, we are not even done with our adoption process yet, but yet we are (or just I am?) going all crazy getting ready for a baby like it's coming in 9 months or something.
I am slightly jealous of women who are pregnant because of the fact that they get a due date.
God's timing is perfect, I know. But do I look like a fool? I'm so busy getting things in the baby's room ready, reading, planning, dreaming, etc... I feel like a fool. There's no certainty of a baby at this stage, just the hope of one in the (near?) future.
For Christmas, many people gave us money toward our adoption process... what a blessing that was!
We also got the closet organizer thingy that I had wanted so much from Ikea. Did I already tell you about this?
And yesterday I exchanged Christmas gifts with my friend, Beth. And she gave me a ducky hooded towel for the baby. Awwwwwwww...
I appreciate that others are excited too and that they're helping me plan and dream and prepare.
But I still feel like a fool.
Sarah, what you are doing is nesting. So, if I'm the one who called you can elephant, am I now calling you a bird????? Hmmmm....
ReplyDeleteI love you, and all of your feelings are OH SO NORMAL. And no...you aren't silly. Ok, sometimes you're silly, but not about this.
Love ya!
that's funny, i almost got you baby stuff for christmas, and then thought, "will she think i'm weird without a 'due date'?" guess i should have gone that route. Stephanie is right--you're a woman therefore you nest. you probably even did it when you first got married and had to reorganize your kitchen three or four times. (i did!) so nest away!
