Philippians 4:8-9

whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Top 5 Things the Pregnancy Books DON'T tell you...

1. That you will drool...a lot! Luckily mostly when you are sleeping:)...I often wake up in a puddle of my own drool....weird!!

2. Your belly is now public property! Random people will touch you. Not only is your belly public property, your "story" is as well. People will ask you very intimate questions without boundaries..For example: I was asked if I used a sperm donor and which ethnicity my babies would be...

3. Granny Panties will be your friend:)...yet even those will, at some point, not cover your whole belly!

4. Your nipples will grow and almost take over you whole chest area...:)

5. Every time you feel your babies move, your heart skips a beat!!! This is the best time of your life. You will never feel as beautiful as you do during your pregnancy. Just knowing that the Lord is forming every inch of your babies and that you are so blessed to be a part His creation.
That when you wake up in the morning, you reach down and pray for your little ones...that you are now playing one of the most important roles you will ever have, that motherhood is a gift, that each and every stretch mark will remind you of this amazing time in your life, that no matter how weird you feel, or how you feel out of control at times.........
None of this matters when you hold your babies for the first time and they look into your eyes.
Nobody tells you that your life will forever be changed in such an incredible way!!!
