Ready for a Change

For once in my life I'm actually ready (as much as I can be) for the change that awaits me in the next few weeks.

In 6 weeks (or less) I will have a baby turn my world upside down. Her long anticipated arrival will come with both change and, I'm hoping after life settles a bit, a sense of normalcy.

Ever since finding out I was pregnant it seems as though my life has been all over the place. Things keep creeping up that I'm not sure how to handle or how to cope with all of time. I'm not in a very good routine at the moment. Meaning that my daily/weekly routine seems to be ever changing. Which as the planner that I am, I can't stand. I know that this is God's way of teaching me to let it go when things don't go as I planned, it's still a daily struggle for me.

While I am slightly worried by the fact that I'm getting overwhelmed by my daily life and the baby is still safe inside of me, I can't help but feel that peace is one the horizon. I'm striving my hardest to lay my worries, anxieties and all of the things I'm clinging tightly to that I know I can't handle at the foot of the cross. This is my daily battle of letting go. And if you know anything about me it's that I'm Terrible (With a capital "T") at letting things go.

Everyday, especially right now, is a reminder that without God and His support I can not accomplish anything!

On a separate note. Fall is here! At least my fall decor is out and the weather has cooled down for the time being. I thought it would be nice to celebrate the coming of fall with a change to my background. I love the colors and design. It (like my previous one) is from The Cutest Blog on the Block . They have few cute fall designs and many other cute designs to choose from. So far they are one of the best free blog template designers I've found.

So here's to Fall!
