The final third

Well, here I am in disbelief that I am actually in my third trimester of this pregnancy.  My baby girl will be here in 12 short weeks.  I will be able to see her, hold her, feed her, and tell her that I love her.  I will learn to recognize her cries.  I will do countless loads of laundry from all of the baby spit up.  I will be able to see my husband hold his daughter, my parents hold their grand daughter.

I will enjoy every moment that I still have in this pregnancy, swollen feet and all.  I will treasure every kick, every punch, every dash to the bathroom as she hits my bladder with scary accuracy.

I will also keep my friends in prayer.  My dear friends that are still walking their path of infertility, crying out to God to bless their wombs.  I will love them, sometimes from afar, as they struggle daily.  I will not forget how painful it is.  I will not take this for granted.
