Anticipating

As most of you know my sister Marissa is pregnant and due in 1 week. I have been anxious to meet her little girl since the day i found out she was expecting. Now with only 1 WEEK to go the days feel like forever. The eight months of getting to this point flew by and now it feels like i am watching paint dry. Time needs to hurry up....

Now for a little secret. I have always wanted a lot of children but the whole pregnancy thing freaks me out! Now that i am married and could potential have a child it freaks me out more. I am so scared of being sick all the time. I do not handle pain very well. HOWEVER, watching Marissa go through pregnancy and have no morning sickness or pain had brought me hope. She still does everything she wants to; the pregnancy does not slow her down. It has given me a little confidence booster that i will be able to handle it and that not all pregnancy are horrible! It taught me mind over matter.

So, Marissa please have your baby sooner. I cannot wait to meet Ava! She is going to be the most well behaved and healthiest baby I ever met. Her kids will be telling my kids to stand up tall, suck your tummy in, and stop eating chocolate!
