Oh, if only you could feel what I feel. Anticipation of Christmas morning and seeing my little ones' eyes light up as they open their gifts coupled with the anticipation of a new baby ready to be born...and only she knows when.

This season has been quite challenging for me. From a broken foot in October to still trying to take it easy and not re-injure muscles that haven't had a good chance to heal just yet. Then there's the trying to get my nesting list knocked out and create that perfect, cozy space for the baby. And trying to keep up with kids and the holidays in general...

All of this has been quite a whirlwind for me.

But I'm grateful for God's grace. I'm grateful for the many people He sent by my side at just the right time to help get me through each and every step. I'm telling you, I could not have made it through on my own strength...I had very little to begin with. {Pregnancy can do that to ya}

Anyway, as I type I'm having another round of braxton hicks contractions and my heart is so ready for this little girl to come. {Any time now, baby.} I'll keep you posted on her arrival, whenever that may be.

For now, I think I'll take my cup of coffee into the other room and watch my little ones play.

Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas. :)
