The Wait Is Over...

I've been awaiting the arrival of our newest Princess grand-daughter and she finally arrived yesterday.  She wanted to wish her parents' a happy anniversary, so she arrived just after midnight on their special day.  She is tiny and the first of our four grands that has been born with any physical similarities to me.  She has my feet, toes, fingers, ears, forehead and coloring.  She has my son's nose and lips and her mother's eyes.  Our oldest Princess didn't look a thing like me when she was born, but she is starting to resemble me a lot more as she grows up.  That really does make me happy since neither of our sons look a thing like me, but definitely have a great deal of my temperament.  So does Princess #1...time will tell if Princess #2 will have any of my temperament. ;-D

During the wait, I have had moments of depression trying to take over, but the battle was successful and I was able to overcome the fog before it turned into darkness.  I have thoroughly enjoyed our grandson...he is such a sweet, adorable little guy with the best giggle.  It really is contagious, hard to stay blue when you hear that laugh.

I am quickly learning that I can be away from my husband for about two weeks before I start really needing to see him, have him near me and to just BE with him.  I am missing him something awful right now, but have nine days to go before I see him again.  Needing to have all my things around me again...needing to cuddle with my cats, although, our son's dogs would cuddle with me, if I weren't allergic.

Been having very realistic, weird dreams the past few nights...not sure if I should be reading something into them or just dismiss them as weird dreams...guess time will tell.

My devotions have been really good and really hitting home.  So thankful for God's Word and the way He speaks to my spirit through it. 

Guess this is it for a bit...I don't want to ramble too much and my brain cannot seem to settle on anything specific, so...later...
