1. Sure it hurts, of course it hurts. Of course I wanted to quit and give-up, but that's when the angels enter in and somehow the pain and suffering is all worth it. In fact as I sit here and type this, I don't remember the pain--funny, since I seriously thought I was going to die during it all.

2. My friend Jodi saying, "YOU GO GIRLLLLL!!!!!!!"
3. Jessie telling me how tough I am and that she knows I can do it!
4. Sam's face when he meets her for the first time. I know that will be incredibly emotional for me.
5. The faces of all of the wonderful mothers that I know, especially my Mom. Matilda is going to have some wonderful grandparents. Bebe and Poppy.
6.I will picture my lovely family. Knowing that Matilda's aunt and uncle are cheering us on!
7. Children are such a gift from God... a gift that wears us out and builds us up all at the same time!
My Pastor Kris and his family inspire me.
I will store all of the sweet words from friends and family, all of the encouragement over this pregnancy has been incredible. Thank you so much. I can't wait for her to meet all of the people that make our world so blessed.
