Baby fever

I've got it BAD!!!  I went to my four year old neice's (Makenzee) Thanksgiving dinner for her Pre-K class.  OMG.  That was the cutest bunch of kids EVER.  Imagine 12 little four year olds, all decked out in their Indian costumes (which were pillow cases handpainted and cut into vest and feathers stapled to construction paper around their head), all sitting around their little tables telling what they are thanful for.  Enough to make your heart melt!!  I don't know if my biological clock is ticking like crazy (I WILL be 32 in two weeks), or if it that I am FINALLY with the right person - but I don't ever remember wanting a child like this.  I think it is finally time.  Sometimes I think about it and regret that I did not have a baby young, so I would have the advantage of being a more youthful and energetic mother.  But, in reality, I have never really been ready to be a mother until now.  I spent my twenties going to college, partying, and pretty much being self-centered and doing EXACTLY what I wanted to do.  I met Brent when I was 28, and have been with him three and a half years.  I knew when I met him I wanted to have children with him.  Now we are finally married and somewhat settled and I am REALLY feeling it - I can see so clearly what a gift, what a blessing, what a joy having a child really is.  So whenever God is ready to bless us with this, I am here!!
