Life just seems to get away from me. There always seems to be so much to do and just not enough time to do it all. These past couple of months have just been a whirlwind.
There is the excitment of knowing that in a couple more weeks I will be an auntie again :) Aisling and Jay are expecting their first child. I am so excited for them and so happy it is not me....lol It is going to be such a bittersweet time for them, the excitement of a new life, and the sadness that Jay's mom will not be there to hold her first grandchild, although I do believe she will be there and she will watch over and be smiling down on her new grandchild. This baby will have a special place in the Campbell household, it will help heal broken hearts......holding a new born, there is nothing like it.
Jay's mom's unexpected passing was heartbreaking. It makes you stop and think. You realize that some things that seem so important in your life are just not. Watching Jay and his siblings stand together was amazing. Their parents would be and I am sure they are so very proud. Every morning my boys walk to school together and every morning we kiss each other and say we love each other and as they are walking out the door I always say "take care of each other".... I have always done this and it is what I thought about when watching Jay, Bob and Andrew stand and greet friends of their mom at her funeral...they were there together, supporting one another and taking care of each other.
I am so excited to see Aisling as a mom. I have no doubt that she will be incredible. The excitement is starting to really unfold as we have her baby shower this coming weekend. The anticipation as to whether it is a boy or a girl, how much the baby will weigh, will it come before her due date? on the due date or god forbid be late!!
Can't wait to meet you little one !!
