So this weekend, we had shower number one and we got something I totally forgot about as gifts. Diapers. Now really diapers are just diapers but seeing packs of diapers did something to me. Its one of the basics for baby care. Seriously, diapers represents a lot. For someone who has waiting so long to be a mom, this made things real. I may be a bit crazy but there are just some things sometimes that remind you of what do don't have and whats waiting for you. To me some of those things are seeing Christmas cards with families on it and the the letters that go with them, hearing stories about birthday parties, seeing artwork on the fridge. Those are not things that make you a parent, but I look forward to those things more than you might know.
So, those 3 big packs of diapers we got this weekend meant more to me that those givers will ever know.

Aw Amy, what an exciting time for you guys. So much to be thankful for. :) How long before your daughter will be home?
We dont know. We are waiting for China now. We are guessing in the next 3 months
Great post Amy and great gift too. Yes she is real and will be home with you before you know it!
I always give diapers at baby showers. I know it is something they can always use and helps some with expenses!
That is so exciting! And such a blessing too, considering how expensive diapers are!
I love taking a diaper, opening it, sticking my nose in and taking a big whiff! That smell.....if just screams baby to me. More so than baby powder or baby lotion.
Of course, you'll want to do this BEFORE the baby uses it.
Just saying. ;)
HOW EXCITING. I know sometimes little thing continue to give me hope. It makes me know that God has a plan.
Oh you will need those! H
