Well, three months ago, after four pregnancy tests (I'm a little impatient), celebration with hugs, laughter, and tears between Sky, our cat (Orien), and myself we announced to our families that we are having our first baby. What a day!

We made a cake to celebrate and Sky bought me my favorite pink rose |
And then...I got sick. Really sick. Morning sickness is a lie. It is all day or whenever-it-feels-like-it sickness. But, now the glorious rays of my second trimester are starting to shine forth! I am fifteen weeks and still occasionally nauseous but, nothing like it used to be. The weight of reality is sinking in as my belly grows and even though it is frightening it is more glorious than I could have possibly imagined. This little baby is due on March 21st, 2013 and seeing it on the ultra-sound and hearing its little heart beat are two of the precious moments of my life so far.
My Dearest Little One, I love you more than I can possibly say.
