pitter patter

This has been a long, tough week for me. My energy level is officially gone, off the charts and I am running on empty. Work has really been busy lately and the stress is starting to take a toll... I woke up this morning thinking it was Saturday only to realize it wasn't and I was furious! I pulled myself together dragging my feet every step of the way wondering how on earth I was going to make it through the long 8 hours ahead of me. Then, sitting at my desk today, I felt the most amazing, precious thing in the entire world... my little baby's flutters!!!! It was amazing. Consistently for a good 10 minutes, I was in complete bliss and almost cried. At our last appointment the baby was moving A LOT just swimming and flipping all about and the doctor said any day know I would feel something. That day was today. I can't wait to feel some strong kicks and jabs :)
