The Mother of all Showers


This weekend was a biggie in terms of milestones for Baby Boy Latham. My friends at Beltway threw me the most wonderful baby shower ever. It was so bright and cheerful, and there were so many people. Most of my female family was there and a large number of my friends and co-workers. They served fruit trays, all kinds of dips and punch, but the sweetest thing was a huge cake made by my friend Kathy Butcher. Wow! But, before we ate my friends decided to do a new version of the "12 days of Christmas" called the "9 months of Pregnancy". It was a great thing to see pastor's wives, and church leaders singing about EPT tests, going the potty, and vomiting. I'm so glad I am apart of a church where full blown humanity is celebrated. The skit was the highlight of the evening.


Of course, everyone totally spoiled me with gifts and love and encouragement. There is no words of gratitude and love that I can give in return for what my friends and family did for me (us) that night.

I guess the best part of all was the wonderful prayer of blessing that was spoken over us as a new little family. I know our prayers were heard. And I trust Him to see each one through to the very end.

So, for all you involved with my baby shower, thank you so very much. I love you all.
