17 days until my official due date. Not that I’m counting. But am I counting down because I want this pregnancy to be over or cherishing the last days I will most likely ever be pregnant?

Some days it’s so hard to soar in the power of the Holy Spirit. But then I feel the pressure, like you said, not necessarily to enjoy the last days but to fully use them and this one life to further God’s kingdom and fulfill His purposes. *sigh* Too heavy for a Wednesday morning!!!
Love ya girl!
May you feel the sweetness right now more than ever. Praying for you and this little boy God has planned for your family.
Beautiful insight friend. Enjoy every moment. And might I just say how adorable you are?
