Before court I was very fearful of having a baby shower. Quite honestly I have never had much luck when it comes to these types of affairs for me. My Mother insisted on having a shower so I conceded to let her give me one and it was beautiful only one problem. Because of many reasons only family members were invited.
I think they scaled it back because I literately broke my arm 2 days after I agreed to let them have it. Although you all my think that I handled it well I admit I was probably a bit snappy, wait I know I was a bit snappy. I remember thinking as I looked around the room that I was missing my friends.
You have to understand they have had to endure endless nights of me talking to them until I was blue in the face about when I would go to Russia to get my baby. So I will say that I think I just felt like something was missing. They had scheduled a baby shower for me during my leave that I canceled because of doctor appointments for my Mother.
Which brings me to yesterday morning. This big truck pulled up in front of my house and out popped a man to deliver this!!!!
The box is really big just like the hearts of those who gave it to Anna and I. I can tell you that I can hardly contain my excitement and have already started to pester Gerard to put it together. I just know that Anna will have so much fun playing with it once she realizes what it is.
The words thank you seem to be not enough. I told them that she had EVERYTHING and quite honestly I meant it. They just love to prove me wrong that is why I love them!
