TIME OUT!

Five years ago I realized I desired to have children. Six months ago that desire became a reality. That point onward has been a whirlwind of emotions, dreams, and studious work! And though we've blogged our experience, I feel there is one very important element that hasn't been given it's proper acknowledgment; our Beautiful Mother.

Brandy, now 26 weeks pregnant and right on track, amazes me every day with her determination to not only create life but prepare for it. Making lists and marking them off, consuming information, laundering baby clothes, and building a nursery to name a recent few. All of this while maintaining the everyday. Working, cleaning, teaching, supporting me, and socializing to name a very few. Did I mention that she is creating life? A feat tiring in and of itself!

I don't mean to sound patronizing or to imply that a woman couldn't do all of these things at once. I simply want to express my profound appreciation for the woman in my life that I am forever in awe of.

Brandy Nicole; pushing through the aches and pains, kidney stones, and contact rejecting eyes. I am so proud of you as the spectacular woman that you are! I can't wait for the day that we get to meet our daughter. I look forward to the days we share as Mother and Father. And for every day here and into the future...I Love You.
