Impact Day

Today is an impact day in my life...

It is Dec 22, 2009 and today I am going to have lunch with my mom at 12:00pm...meet Gretch for an ultrasound at 3:00 pm...and then shop for our baby boy or girl at 4:00pm.

Yep This the day we find out if we are having a boy or a girl.

People keep asking me what do I want...I keep responding "a baby".

They ask me what I think it is...I think "a baby".

Here's my thoughts...

I don't get to choose what sex it is.....I do get to choose how I react to what sex it is.

So...it's 6:48 am when I am writing this...by 4:00pm I will know.....

So my soon-to-come dear boy or girl (currently "a baby")....I want you to know that whether I am buying pink clothes or blue clothes today doesn't matter to me...

What does matter is I have the distinct pleasure of getting to buy you clothes.

I get the distinct pleasure of getting to dream more vividly about you and your life to come.

I get the distinct pleasure of knowing that what is to be....is being dictated word for word.... by the author of the universe, and I have no say...no power...no decision...except one....

Yep today I get to unwrap this part of the gift he is giving me... on this day...this special day....this day of impact.

I have made my decision...boy or girl...get ready kiddo....for I have decided to make your life awesome fun!
