This weekend, my very sweet and lovely mother-in-law and my amazing ladyfriend P. threw me the most fun baby shower. Something like 17 of my closest girlfriends came together to shower me with love, presents and good wishes. My heart feels so full. It was at an adorable French restaurant in Brooklyn, near my home; we ate delicious brunch goodies and macarons (which my mother-in-law special ordered and trekked to Manhattan to pick up just for the event) and just visited and hung out.
Oh, and I opened my presents--so many wonderful things! I even got a handmade blanket, and there's another one on the way! I am so relieved--I could actually take care of my baby with everything we got; I no longer have to worry that I am going to have to diaper my child with old newspapers and bathe him or her with dish soap.
And it was just a beautiful reminder of what truly special friends I have. I am a very lucky woman indeed.
(It was also a really nice diversion from the news. I honestly can't even pay attention to it right now.)
