Love Thursday: Soon.

Taken by Chris, my beloved, my co-conspirator, the man with whom I'm heading into this wild unknown.
I shared some thoughts about my pregnancy so far with the incredible Kimmi yesterday, and she nudged me lovingly to write an essay about one of these threads. I love her for that. Since November, my words have exploded, gone flying in all directions, transformed mostly into images and photographs and quiet moments instead of cohesive blog posts or essays.
I know they'll return, better and more essential than before. For now, I turn inward, waiting.

My husband and co-conspirator took a photo looking down on my when I was about 7 or 8 months pregnant. What I see is glowing face, round belly and little feet. It will always be a favorite and so will yours.
Even though there have been some times when I thought I'd be pregnant forever, nine months is barely a breath in a full lifespan, so it's a gift to have these fleeting moments captured so beautifully. Do you have your photo up in your home anywhere? We've been thinking about printing up a few and framing them.
Tucked up under your heart.
Lucky lucky child of yours.
I am so excited for the arrival of this being.
And I love the time you are taking, so eloquently caught here.
I will go look through my pregnancy photos.
Feeling the same press up under my heart now though, with my 16 year old.
