SAY WHAT!?!?!

So a few days ago I got the shock of a lifetime (well at this moment - I am sure something will top this - I still have to live through the teenage years with my too!).  Anyway, I digress!  I came home to see my sister standing there with a songram picture of a baby.  My first reation was - who's baby is this?  Like she would be carring around a sonogram picture around of someone else's baby!  DUH!  Once I realized how stupid that question sounded, my second reaction was HEATHER!!!  Was not excpecting that news at all!  But nonetheless and SO HAPPY that I will soon have another neice or nephew running around with the rest.  If I had any advice at all for her it would be:

Heather,
Motherhood is the toughest job you will have.  I had heard that my entire life and thought really! until I became one myself.  There is a constant worry that you will now inheriet but a new found joy of the small things you also gain.   It is roller coaster of a ride of emotions for the rest of your life.  It is one day hoping and waiting for them to take that first step and then realizing that when they do you now feel an overwhelming sensation that they are growing up way too fast and where have the days gone.  Relish EVERY moment because those moments never return.  Know that they are so impressionable - more than even you will know until it is too late.  And most importantly - I will steal this kid every chance I get!  LOL!
