The truth? I’m posting this today as a reminder to myself that it’s ok to slow down and simply enjoy the moment. 

While I am so excited to become a mom, getting pregnant unexpectedly came with the reality that I had a lot of “unfinished business” to attend to before baby’s arrival. There was grad school and my Pilates certification and a list of work projects now all with a specific time limit to get done… I’m proud of myself and what I have been able to accomplish since finding out I was pregnant AND I’m ready to slow down. 

As her due date moves closer and closer, I find myself drawn more and more to slower days… less doing, and more just being in the moment.
