lately i've been feeling keenly aware of my baby's presence. i've noticed that it no longer feels accurate to say "when the baby comes" because he's already here. he's present and i feel connected to him. i often greet him in the mornings ("good morning to you too!") when i feel him for the first time each day, and sometimes his movements are so silly that it makes me laugh. he's part of my life even though i haven't seen his face. sometimes i have to remind myself that no one else gets to experience him in the way i do and for everyone else they're waiting to meet him and hold him. i'm excited to see his face, and to have his little hand wrap around my finger, but it won't be our beginning because our relationship and connection has already started. everywhere i go, he goes. there's only a few couple of inches between him and the rest of the world. we've already had good times together and i feel like part of me will miss this when he's born.
penny finally accepted our job offer today. phew! she's going to start on june 10. you know what your baby's been doing.
