It is a strange thing to come home. While yet on the journey, you cannot at all realize how strange it will be.
– Selma Lagerlof.
It is a strange thing to leave the house pregnant and return with a baby in hands! I notice parts of my pregnancy scattered around the house, discarded memories, like fallen leaves.
Here the calendar was left on Baby A’s birth date. Once in labor, the house is forgotten.
This book was by my laptop- I was consulting it just a little before my water broke!
Zipping up my hospital bag. Homeward bound!
Grateful for family and their help, and so grateful to God for a healthy pregnancy, labor, and baby! (also grateful for an iPhone with access to photos and blogging! I don’t have time to sit and edit my other photos. It’s nice to be able to take quick phone snaps!)
” He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, within three darknesses. That is God, your Lord; to Him belongs dominion. There is no deity except Him, so how are you averted?” Quran 39:6
