The One Where We Have A Baby
June 27, 2020The One Where They Have A Baby.
I don’t want to assume you all know the story.
So here’s the condensed version…
It’s been 4.5 years since I stepped out on my own after an 11 year marriage, with my three kids.
And by my own, I mean Mom and Dads.
I met Shane, at work.
The Jim to my Pam.
While married before as well, Shane did not bring any children into our blend.
He just really fell for mine.
And they really fell for him.
We got married and became family nearly 2 years ago.
So this, is my fourth child.
This, is Shane’s first.
Our addition to an already perfect blend.
It’s been 10 years since I’ve done this.
It feels all so new and yet strangely familiar.
Like the ultimate déjà vu of life.
That, has been both blessing and curse.
This has been filled with a lot of emotions, a lot of unknowns, a lot of memories I thought I’d put to rest that need healing now.
But a bottom line of joy,
And great expectation.
I’m officially done trying to predict my life or the cards in my hands.
Because much of me didn’t believe this was in them.
Both scared to want it, and scared to have it.
Releasing that, I’m here now.
Here for the ride.
Every up and down of it.
Thank you, for sharing in this joy with us.
Thank you, for being a part of the ride.
