mother's day/ maternity pics

Nicole took some shots of the belly recently and she worked her magic again behind the camera.

So today on Mother's Day, I'm celebrating the fact that God has sent me two beautiful boys to guard and watch over.  My little Luke has taught me more about love in the last two years than anyone has during my whole life.  My kicking baby inside my belly reminds me constantly how miraculous and beautiful it is to be a woman and to carry a child.  I've been given a special opportunity to know these boys better than anyone else on the earth, and that truly is a gift.  I love being a Mother.








oh, and if is anyone is counting with me... 32 weeks today!

My parents are gems and have Luke as I'm writing this.  Darren and I were able to get lots of nesting done this weekend and not having a toddler to juggle around has been the best present ever.  I also got spoiled with a pedicure gift certificate (thanks Dick and Karen) and Luke surprised me with an Otterbox iPad case!
