reminders

walkin' today and a young man pulls up next to
me with a frazzled look on his face. needs directions
to the hospital....he's gotta take his wife. i look
over, just see someone pretty round in there....
thinking it's baby time. and they're outta state!!!
i saw their license plates as they pulled away.
oh man.

i gave them directions and sent them all kindsa
positive vibes as they pulled away...

and then the thoughts and memories came floodin' thru...

as i walked up to my house, i thought about how i was
just headin' in for a regular day. it felt so good.
and yeah, there was a time i was really sad i wasn't
gonna have another baby.....that was a long time ago!

this moring i was so grateful i was where i was.
i walked in to my grown babies,
smiled and sat down to work.

life feels a lot easier this morning since i saw that
guy's face...

we forget how good a place we are in so many times.

i needed the reminder this morning....
it's gonna be a good day.

awwww... i'm gonna cry at the thought of those two in a car looking to have a baby.. my mom and i were reminiscing about the birth of v as we drove past the hospital yesterday.... how it was such a scary scary day.. and his birth was engulfed in the unknown and a heck of a lot of fear... we also talked about how all that fear and unknown turned into the most fabulous gift anyone could have ever imagined.. how one of the scariest days of my life.. turned into the largest blessing in my life

love to you momma.. xo xo xo
