Grace in Small Things, September 1, 2011

1. I have the sweetest mom in the whole wide world. She knows the next couple weeks are going to be tough, as this was the time when I lost my last baby. She made me a little bag of presents...one for each day until my next ultrasound. Just little things, but there's so much love in these gifts. I'm so lucky...

2. One of my best friends has this thing about turtles. She loves them--and thinks they're lucky. She told me yesterday she puts my ultrasound dates on her calendar, and wears turtle jewelry on those days.

3. Work is busy. Which is good in that my maternity fund is getting funded (I freelance, and plan to take 3 months off when the babies are born, and my husband's finishing his last year of college right now, so, yeah, we need money in the bank for those months). A busy work schedule is helping to make that goal a reality.

4. Could not sleep last night, but my first call this morning was at 10 AM, so slept in until 9:45...so fortunate to be able to do that!

5. Meeting a friend in a few minutes for an ice cream cone...soooooo nauseous, but I know ice cream is going to help. :)

XOXO
