As I sit here reflecting on this time last year, memories of the holidays flood my mind. Last December felt magical—decorations twinkling against the winter chill, the scent of pine filling the air—but it pales in comparison to the awe-inspiring transformation that was happening within me. That round belly carried dreams of new beginnings, and with each snowflake drifting lazily toward our street adorned with holiday lights, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy bubbling up inside me—not just for Christmas, but for the miracle unfolding within me.
This past week has left me feeling like I'm riding a rollercoaster of emotions. Is it the season? The colder weather? The hustle and bustle of preparations? Or maybe it's the hormonal shifts that come with pregnancy? Whatever it is, I’ve found myself embracing the ebb and flow of it all. This pregnancy feels different than the first—it’s quieter, slower, yet somehow richer in its own way. There’s a certain calmness now, a sense of "it is what it is," even when things get overwhelming.
Baby’s arrival is just around the corner, and already I can see how much they’re surpassing my wildest expectations. I want to savor every moment, from the quiet moments snuggled up by the fire to the chaos that inevitably comes with raising a family. Hot cocoa, festive music, and family time are all part of the charm this season brings, and I don’t want to miss a single beat. This week holds extra significance for us because it marks Baby's first Christmas—a milestone I never thought possible until now.
But wait—there might be another surprise in store! Lately, Baby has been showing signs of wanting to take those first wobbly steps. Watching them attempt to balance on their tiny legs gives me goosebumps. It feels surreal to think that soon enough, they’ll be toddling around the house, exploring the world with wide-eyed wonder.
Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs at you, but there’s beauty in embracing the unexpected. Whether it’s the holidays or parenthood, each day brings something new to cherish. And while I know there will be challenges ahead, I’m choosing to focus on the magic of the season and the incredible journey we’re embarking on as a family. Here’s to Baby’s first Christmas—and who knows? Maybe they'll even surprise us with their very first steps before the clock strikes midnight.
