He knows, Julie. Even when we have all the time in the world to adjust to a cruel illness and the opportunity to say goodbye, it is never enough. He sounds like a wonderful man who was a blessing in the lives of his family and friends. I am so sorry for the pain you must all be feeling. You’re in my thoughts and prayers.

Love, Meghan

so–i just wanted to say hey and send hugs!!

you are doing so great! i mean–seriously–just the fact that you are able to process all the things that you are feeling and put them into words is amazing. With every single pregnancy I had a day just like you are describing. i had a day picked in my head where i was sure the baby was coming. and every single time, the baby did not come that day!! I felt like, for me–it was a really important emotional threshold to cross, and a really important transition into motherhood.

A lot of the easy going-ness that it takes to be a mom did not come naturally to me. Nothing goes the way I expect it to. Even my most well planned out day does not go as planned. It’s not like everything goes wrong–not even close!–it’s just that nothing is how i *expected.*

So maybe this is God’s way of preparing you for the unexpected. Maybe this will help you to find joy in surprises. Because, wow are there a lot of surprises when you are a mom!

you are going to have so much fun!!

and i’ll be praying that the labor and delivery part will be way easier than you expected and that it will be as charmed as the rest of your pregnancy. it’ll be at the perfect time too–even though you didn’t choose it.

love you!

You’ll forget something important, you’ll do something wrong, yet when all is accounted for, everything will turn out all right. You’ll have a beautiful baby boy who thinks the world of you. *hugs* I have no doubt you’re going to be a great mom and Dan will be a great Dad. It won’t be easy, but you have to remember to give yourself a little slack.
