Tonight, while making a return at Babies 'R Us, I made what some people would consider to be a brash move: I parked in the "Expectant Parent" parking spot.
The store was due to close in 15 mintues, so I figured the likelihood of a pregnant woman vying with me for that parking spot were slim. And, if anyone challenged me, I would tell them quite matter-of-factly, yes, I am an expectant mother.
I am expecting to travel to pick up my baby in 3 days. I am bursting at the seams with a last-minute to-do list that has a miraculous tendency to expand, rather than contract. Adoptive child or not, my nesting horomones are very real and present and raging. I am on an unstoppable quest to make sure every detail of my baby's nursery is in order, every bottle, every pacifier, every sock and onesie purchased and in place for my child's arrival. My goal: to deliver my child home safely and to settle him as comfortably as I can into his new home. I am a woman on a mission. Expectant mother? You bet.
Do Not Try to Stop Me.
