The circle of life............. I am so excited to be an aunt! My sister is so great with my girls. I have no doubt that she is going to be a great mom. She was always that little girl who preferred playing babies over barbies and always said that if the universe had it's way, she would one day have at least 10 kids. She has the biggest heart and is really just a big kid herself.
A couple of Saturdays ago, we celebrated with my mom and dad's side of the family. It was really wonderful seeing my mom's BFF, my mom's sister and cousins. While we missed a few people, it was great reconnecting with those relatives and good friends we rarely see. The only people missing were my grandma and parents. It still tugs at my heart strings every day not having them here with us. This past month has been tough. I miss them so much! But through faith, I know I will see them again one day.
Here's a look back at my sister's family shower that my cousin and I hosted. We decided to do a brunch. It was really lovely! Baby Carter is loved by so many already!

I know what she might be feeling right now. Even my baby shower was last week only in an event venue nearby. Loved the arrangements and the gifts. Congratulations to you! It’s a lovely post and it was good to see it. I am sure this would have been one of the best days of our life.
