I am beaming today! Filled up with love and excitement for our new baby!!! My heart could explode! I am so thankful for my girlfriends who threw me a BABY SPRINKLE last night in anticipation of number 4.
Never did I imagine when I sent my daughter to school three years ago I would develop a sisterhood of friends as well! I am so grateful for my Saint Susanna community. My beautiful friend, Kelly Palmer hosted the most touching celebration in my honor last night. I am so grateful for her friendship. She inspires me as a mom, wife and friend everyday.
The evening was filled with great conversation, good wine, excellent food an abundance of gifts and a prayer dedication just for my new little baby!
Olivia was the special guest of honor! She is so excited!!!
My favorite part of the evening: Each woman wrote me their own special prayer blessing. We took turns one by one sharing each persons prayer. After each woman read me their prayer they handed me a prayer bead to thread on a string. After every prayer was shared I had a personalized prayer bracelet representing each persons blessing for me. Their thought was I could take this bracelet into the delivery room with me so I would be lifted up in prayer for a safe and healthy delivery.
And then it was time to open the gifts for the baby! Bedding, blankets, diapers, binkies, bottles and everything in between...
I am so filled up! I am so thankful. This baby is going to be so loved!
