Weekly Recap

I heard:
My cute friend is pregnant and I couldn't be more thrilled for her. That's now 8 friends of mine all due within 3 months of each other.
Little Miss B sing "I hope you'll call me when I'm on my mission"

I saw:
Our cute neighbor girl get baptized. Such a cutie and good example to the rest of her family. Melts my heart

I tasted:
My favorite salad from Chili's on date night. Mmm, Mmm....
Homemade fresh starwberry lemonade thanks to Gwen who gave me a ton of lemons off her tree

I struggled:
wtih being asked if I was going to kill my baby. Seriously...there is no other way to say it. I just can't wrap my head around the thought that because my child may not be like the rest of the healthy children that they would think I would not want to keep her/him. It was disturbing/offensive they even ask. Although it was theraputic to verbally tell them how bady I want this child and LOVE him/her so much already. I have seen it via ultra sound, felt it move and heard the heart beat. Really you don't think that's murder?! I would never want to stand before my Maker and tell him I did not allow this child to be born. I knew I wanted it, but it was kind of nice to verbally say it out loud and fight for this little one, no matter what challenges may be ahead of us.

I felt:
overwhelmed as I sat down and made my to do list for this week. YIKES!
lonely
Exremely Blessed-peaceful

I accomplished:
J-mans birthday present. Thanks to my mom helping me with sewing machine questions. I think he is going to love it!
putting together 130 headband flower kits and taught them to the mothers/daughters at Heritage Acedemy for a craft night my friend was in charge of.

I am looking forward to:
Jmans Birthday
girls night later in the week to celebrate all of us who are expecting
finishing up kits for Relief Society meeting on Thursday
