I'm laying in bed tonight curled up with my dogs, and my husband is asleep by my side. I just popped in "The Holiday," and I got all weepy at a commercial for a movie called "Catch and Release." (Note to self, rent Catch and Release) (Other note to self, pregnancy hormones make me irrationally weepy.)
I feel like I'm in such a great place in my life. I feel so truly happy. Joe and I just recently completely paid off all of the credit card debt we accrued in college, and are working on a plan to pay off my student loans. My sister and bro in law just had a sweet baby boy, their final addition to their family, and holding him makes me so happy. My parents come to town to visit all the time, so I get to see them frequently. I feel healthy and unstressed. Fall is in the air. And in April, I get to become a Mommy. Something I've really been wanting for a little while now. Life is truly good right now.
Sometimes, when things are going good, it makes me worried about what's around the corner. But I have to remind myself that whatever is around the next bend, it's going to come whether I'm prepared or not. So the best thing to do is just to sit back, kick my feet up, and enjoy life's blessings.
I'm grateful for my life every day. And for now, even if it's just for five minutes, I'm good.
Sorry for my sappy little post. :)
Happy fall evening my friends!

Oh, Jamie! I'm so happy for you and Joe! {I've been meaning to call you and wish you Congratulations!} This made me tear up a bit because you deserve every bit of happiness life grants you. So happy for you and to call you my friend!

So happy for you Jamie! It is such a wonderful thing to become a Mom. It changes every single fiber of your being and makes you better than you ever imagined you could be.
Enjoy this time before. Cherish it and relax. Indulge yourself because after this you will never be able to be selfish again.
Concentrate on the good :D
I love your sappy little post! : ) And I know what you mean... Sometimes things feel so perfect, and I feel so happy that it makes me nervous. But worrying is such a buzzkill, so I'm with you. Let's just enjoy the bliss!
I'm so happy you are happy!!
