I've lived far away from my family for the last 10 years and the hardest part is not being able to be there for special occasions or when I know I could be of help.
In December I had to miss my sister's baby shower because we were moving. On February 12th she gave birth to a beautiful lil guy via c-section. His name is Judah Michael and I can't wait to meet him.
My sister is in that new-mom-not-so-sure stage (while recovering from major surgery), something I know a lot about since I did the new-mom-not-so-sure thing (while recovering from major surgery) with three kids instead of one. I understand how she feels and I just want to be there to encourage her and help her and cook and clean for her.
But I am here. And I can't be there right now because Chuck's schedule is crazy right now. Oh, and flights are insanely priced, too.
And that is the hardest part for me. Knowing I could help and encourage her and not being able to... ugh. It is hard.
I LOVE YOU, CHRISTI!!! You are a great mommy and it gets easier, I promise! :)

I love you so much. Thanks for being so good to me. Your calls are precious to me. I mean it.
I can't wait for you to meet my lil man either. Maybe one of us can win some plane tix some how.
