There should be a beautiful, almost-seven month old baby girl at my side, taking up my time. And I get to wondering if I will always look at this empty hole and wonder about all the what-ifs and should-have-beens...
*sigh*
But it is what it is.
Whether I like it or not.
We started the Christmas tree... it's crooked like our last one. I'd ask my husband to fix it, but after we tried to a few nights ago, I just decided that it makes life interesting :) And the need to be a perfectionist just isn't that important anymore...
At my church we have a Christian sorority for the young women. We each have secret sisters that we encourage through letters, pray for and give small gifts to. We have a special place where we leave these gifts in our church to keep it discreet.
Well I have no idea who she is, but my secret sister is just FABULOUS. She bought me this ornament...
Sorry the picture is kind of dark, but isn't it beautiful!!!! So my Jenna has three ornaments now... my beautiful, beautiful Jenna Belle.
(It is from Things Remembered if you are looking for that perfect ornament :)

AW That's beautiful! What a thoughtful secret sister you have!!
You have a special secret sister! I love the ornament, just beautiful! I am glad that you are getting situated in your new house. I too wish you had a 7 month old distracting you from what you are doing. I pray that soon you will be baby proofing the house and chasing after a little one.
Glad you're finally all moved and in your new home! Moving is sure a lot of work! My mom always did the secret sister thing at her church when I was growing up and I always thought it was neat. Your secret sister did a great job with picking out a gift. The ornament is wonderful!!
That is so gorgeous, what a perfect gift from such a thoughtful secret sis!!
