I am just sitting here overwhelmed at the blessings in my life. My sweet, sweet husband is laying right beside me. Our precious dog, Wally (with his new haircut), is laying against Ryan. I have a laundry basket of little boy clothes that I recently bought at a consignment sale waiting to be folded. I pulled out a tiny little newborn onesie and laid it right next to Ryan, so I'm able to envision what it will be like to see my 3 boys all laying together.
Pregnancy stuff is going well. Energy-wise I'm doing well, with no pain or real discomfort. We are due a week from Monday (on Labor Day), and I can't believe how quickly the time has flown by. The last 9 months have been so crazy busy with the internship, settling back into life in Louisville, new church, 3 new jobs for Ryan (associate pastor, teaching at a private school and serving as a grader for one of his professors at Southern). Because of this busyness, it hasn't really hit me that we're even pregnant. Not to mention that any day now we will Lord-willing have a baby boy to care for. Anyway, I'm just wondering when it's all going to sink in for me. Maybe when we get to the hospital??
Random ramblings, I know, but I just wanted to take a few minutes to publicly count my blessings for I know it's something I don't do nearly enough.
It reminds me of a song we sing at church called The Revelation Song. I've been struck today by the lyrics, so I've included both below. Worship and enjoy!
