three months

My third trimester starts today.

Jameson Jia Sheung Ho is due three months from yesterday.

I'm not sure that I've even really got my head wrapped around this quite yet. I think it still feels far away, but at the same time it is drawing imminently closer and I am trying not to run around in a panic about all of the things that I would like to have done before he gets here.

Although this has probably been the most trying time in our lives (for many reasons), I look around and I see the fact that we have still been given all of the things we need to bring our son into the world and take care of him for the first few months of his life.

I'm not too sure about the months afterwards, but I am doing my best to rest in the knowledge that at least the "now" is taken care of.

To tell you the truth, I am so in love with my son, that three months almost feels like an unbearable amount of time to wait to meet him.

I want to be a mom now, and time is ticking by.

Although I am still dealing with the realities of labor and birth, when I think about my baby, it's almost like an afterthought.

The little person I have waited for my entire life is almost here, and I am as ready as I will ever be.

hiatus

I'm taking a break for awhile.

I'm not sure when I'll be back. I know that I'm not finished here, and that I do love having this blog as a creative outlet, but right now, I just can't muster up the energy or enthusiasm to keep it going regularly.
If that means that my chances at gaining 100 followers has been shot down, well, so be it.

There are bigger fish to fry than how many people are google following, or what kind of fashion trends are just coming up, or all of the clothes there are to buy and how on earth to make it through 30 days without buying anything new.

*insert sarcastic tone here*

I'm not shutting it down, or making it private, or anything like that.
Just letting you know that I won't be around regularly again for awhile.
I'll let you know when I make it back.
