I finally have the 'glow' or that's what someone told me today, anyways.  

I'll admit, this whole mother thing has a hold on me. I feel myself becoming one of those people who worries about things, who prays for a better world, and who is afraid of online dating apps (I just realized that the app "Tender" is actually a real thing that real people do, I'm horrified.)

The idea of a little tiny person laying in bed, cuddling in the morning, and making little tiny baby noises all the time, is both totally weird and insanely exciting! 

And Oh My Gosh, I can't wait to see David as a Daddy. It's absolutely one of my favorite ideas in this whole world. I'm going to be a good mom, but he's going to be an amazing father. I can't wait to witness it all. (No pressure, David) (and to the rest of you, sorry for the mushy!) 

That person was right, I do have the bug, the glow. Songs that I use to hear as love songs, I've started hearing from the perspective of a mom; this morning I got excited because I'll get to play Elf on a Shelf in a couple more years; and feeling this little girl wiggle - knowing she's alive and well in there - is more calming and relaxing than any other sensation I've ever experienced. Yes, the idea of being a mom has me all wrapped up in it.
