What Made Me Cry This Week?
During
graduation we remembered a colleague who recently passed away due to metastatic melanoma. She left three young kids.
And during the funeral of a baby boy. Only 33 days old and already called by Jesus to sit with him in heaven. The funeral Mass was so beautiful -- I felt both sadness and joy for baby J and his family.
Sleep?
I love it. I need it.

Zulily has been my go-to place for maternity outfits. That and old navy maternity.
I'm still able to wear some nonmaternity tights.
Gender?
Is it a boy or a girl? I don't know.

My pre-preg body. The usual
What I'm looking forward to....
I've started planning Daniel's party. It will be fun.
About the rest of the family...
