Days Away from Change

I am only a few days away from the biggest change in my life. It is a lot to take in sometimes. Right now my little girl is moving around inside of me. Soon, she will be moving around in my arms. Pregnancy has been a special time. It has taught me a lot about my body and about the miracle of life. Although I don't think we could ever be fully prepared to be parents, I feel like we are ready. As I think back on my life, I can see different experiences that have prepared me to be a mother. Each trial, each habit I have set, each sin I have repented of, each parenting example from my mom and dad, have all helped to prepare me for what is ahead. I do realize that I have no idea what it is like to be a mom, but I also realize that God is on my side. I know that I can gain peace and knowledge through Him throughout this crazy experience that will be beginning in a few days. We are about to begin a new chapter in our lives. My heart is full. Adventures up ahead!
