A post for myself!

This post is specially for myself! I want to remember this wonderful feeling I'm having....
Now that my baby's room is done (well, we just need to set up the curtains) I just love spending time there... dreaming of my beloved! I'm a such typical mom-to-be that I even laugh at myself, but I can't help it, I just looooooooove this last stage of my pregnancy.... (of course if you don't count the discomfort and aches : )) I look around and I admire the colors, contrast, shapes, textures.... chosen to create a sweet place for my little boy! I imagine him on his crib, in my arms late at night, me singing in Japanese for him... it fills my heart with explosion of love and joy.
I want to remember this feeling forever.... specially when the tiring times come....

PS: I'm 37 weeks prego.... the doc said it can be any day.... but I still have 3 weeks until my due date!

A good day!

Although I couldn't sleep for several hours, today turned out to be a good one! I had my interview to get my citizenship and everything went smooth and so fast! Plus I had my wonderful hubby driving me to the place. He took the afternoon off so he could be there for me.... that was a surprise, since I was going by myself. He made my day :) Now that I have this behind me I can have this baby anytime!!!!

I can't sleep...

I can't sleep.... there are so many things in my mind that don't allow me too! I'm too excited and too anxious... and also amazed with some people life puts in my life! First, I'm almost 37 weeks prego and so ready to have this baby! It's getting uncomfortable now with all the aches and excitement of the pregnancy! I can't wait to see my little boy! I'm also curious how my labor is going to be! I'm not afraid... but really curious! Since each women that I talked to had a different experience, I wonder how mine is going to be like! Second, I have a big thing ahead of me today that I'll share it later.... nothing to worry about but it just makes me anxious :) Third, I'm amazed with what jealous people can do.... I have wonderful people in my life and always say how blessed I'm. But I also have some people that I'm learning to deal with... Real friends always are happy and want to see you grow and grow! My best friends are so important and they are always rooting for me! However, I have some people that for some reason are always trying to get closer to me but there is no real love, only jealousy. I pray God can change their hearts so they can see that spending time and effort being jealous or envious at someone don't add anything to their lives :) Okay, now let me go back to bed and see if I can sleep!
