Perspective

Sitting here in the hospital waiting for my niece to come has made my mind wander...
Well, actually, it's just cause I've already gone to all the websites that I find entertainment in and I've checked my e-mail about 12 times.

I've started to think about when I have a kid.
First off: Don't worry, mom, it's not going to be ANY time soon. lol.
But each time that I went in to visit Melissa, I thought about what it will be like when my time comes. Just sitting here thinking about seeing my niece gives me the watery-eyes-and-goosbumps-all-over feeling so I can't even begin to imagine what the parents feel like in the moments of seeing their child.

Right now I think that the feeling of seeing a tiny baby that is my sister's will be my goosbumps moment that will last me for a while till I have my own with my husband.

All this waiting and thinking has given me an even greater appreciation of life.
