Overwhelmed

When we were pregnant with Ellie I was overwhelmed.  Overwhelmed with fear of the unknown.

Now I often find myself overwhelmed for lots of other reasons.

Overwhelmed by how cute Ellie is. It's fun to just stare at her when she smiles because she usually gets the vibe your putting off and goes in for the hug.

Overwhelmed when I see Julia take the lead with Ellie at bedtime and remove her glasses, sing her songs, read her a book and give out hugs and kisses.

Overwhelmed with gratitude that we've been given four beautiful, terrific children that fill our lives with great meaning.
