The next step...

As of Friday, I am a stay at home mom. Now, I'm just waiting for my child to arrive. I don't think I have come close to grasping how my life is about to change with the arrival of our son, but I have about five weeks left to think that over! I've resigned myself to the fact that this is probably one of those life events you can't really "prepare" for... however, here is my feeble attempt:

See? The way I figure it, the more stressed about something you are, the more list making will help! Especially if you arm yourself with brightly colored highlighters with which to prioritize your list! Silly, I know, but what else can I do?

Words can't express how thankful I am to be done working- for a husband who works as hard as mine to do well in his job, who won't mind swapping in all those extra things we do with our money so that I can stay home with our kids. I am beyond blessed, and overflowing with excitement. I know it won't be perfect, but what fun is that, anyway???
