Emotional

This will likely be one of the most emotional weeks of my life. First, I am expecting my first child on Thursday. My sweet baby girl Julia is due on June 16. Ofcourse, I am thrilled, anxious, excited, nervous and in complete awe about our new little arrival. It is almost sereal to me. I do not think it will actually hit me until I have her in my arms. What a wonderful moment. But, at the same time, I am remembering my dad. We lost him last August. Saturday is my dad's birthday and Sunday is Father's day. So in the midst of celebrating this little life, I will also be thinking of my very special dad. To make things more emotional, this will be Ben's first Father's day--what a very special day for him as well. I pray that God gives me the strength to embrace all of these emotions. I suppose I am experiencing God in the most extreme way- celebrating life and death at the same time. Our little Julia is my little angel. I guess God knows what he is doing.

On a lighter note...here is a picture from my baby shower and a picture of Julia's room.
