In a month, I could be a mom.
Either I will have had this little one, or I will really want to have had this little one.
And I'm realizing that in this last month of our family of 2, there are so many things I still want to do.
Get pictures taken.
Get boxes unpacked.
Go on a real date- like, a nice meal.
Make good habits- have a routine.
Plan November and December's sermons.
And there are so many things- so many lists- of things we HAVE to do.
Find one last maternity leave preacher.
Finish the book for maternity leave.
Buy a carseat/crib mattress/all the things a baby will need right away
(but boy do we have clothes covered!)
Wash the diapers
Freezer prep more meals
And it's exciting, and it's terrifying.
And what I wanted to write down today, so that I remember it tomorrow and for days and weeks and months to come, is that while yes- life will change because of this child, it will not end. We will go on dates. We will make good habits- and bad ones too. We will pack and unpack- we will do tons of laundry.
We will, and then some.
