Changed

You know what's funny?  I realized that it's been almost a year since we found out that I was pregnant.  When I was pregnant, we were beyond thrilled and thought of all the things that we had to look forward to with the coming of our little bundle of joy.  Along with that, we also wondered how our lives would change and all the things we may not be able to do.  We talked about how we would deal with those changes and whether or not we would miss being just a twosome.

But since she's been here, I really haven't even given a thought to those things.  I don't worry about missed movies or shows at the theater, being able to go shopping or anywhere I want and just spend my day wandering around, chances to go on quick trips to Vegas, or even just being able to sleep whenever and for however long.  It's funny because all those things seem so silly and little.  Someone asked me recently if I was sad about all the sacrifices that I make because of the baby.  My answer:  what sacrifices?  Having her in my life is the ultimate gift and blessing.
