So I'm officially 38 weeks pregnant. EVERYONE (with sweet intentions) keeps asking me when little Newman is going to make her arrival. I wish I knew! For now, I'm just enjoying those last few days of my family of four. You know, we went to Steak and Shake the other day and my first thought was, "Oh...we'll never be able to fit in a booth like this again."
Some women are afraid to admit it but there is a fear of having subsequent children. You see, that first born is the love of your life. You begin to wonder how in the world you could ever love another child the way you love the one you already have in your life. Well, the good news is that God has a special way of filling your heart with even more love to give your children. I do look at Kennedy and Max now and wonder if I will miss those days when I had two kids who were just best friends, each walking hand in hand across the Target parking lot with me!
I love my kids. I love my life. I am grateful for every moment. And so...if it takes a few days (weeks? yikes.) for Baby Emersyn Newman to get here, then so be it. Although, I do look forward to introducing her to her beautiful sister and sweet brother. That's the BEST part about more kiddos. With each one, God not only gives you more love for that new baby but always fills your heart with joy and love for the ones you already have.
The kids are beautiful! Mya loves those snappers too. She proved grandpa wrong...yes they even work in rain puddles.
