The Little Things

Why hello!  It has been a while since my last post...2 months actually, wow!  In case you haven't yet heard, Blair and I are expecting twins in October!  Pregnancy has been the only thing on my brain since we found out we were expecting, so I haven't posted anything for fear I would spill the beans too early.  However, I have been writing blog posts and saving them for when we were past the 12 week mark.

Here is the first one, written after we found out I was pregnant, but several weeks we found out that there were two buns in the oven!


"The Little Things" 
Post written on March 10, 2012

When I was a little girl, my mom used to say to me “Big things come in small packages.”  The older I get, the more I realize this is true. 

As it turns out, my biggest dreams have all revolved around the little things.  A little box contained the engagement ring Blair gave me when he asked me to be his wife.  The sales woman gave us a tiny little red house when we signed the contract for our first home together.  Now, there is a very little thing growing in my belly.  No bigger than a sesame seed, this little thing is a baby.  This little thing is a common little miracle, and the living embodiment of the dreams Blair and I have made together.
