I just had to share a fun encounter I had yesterday.
As I was walking into the grocery store an older man, maybe in his seventies, was walking out to his car and motioned me over to him. Then he said, "I know you don't know who I am, but I just wanted to tell you that I think that a woman bearing child brings out all her beauty." It was such a nice compliment from a complete stranger, and so different from the comments you usually get when you're almost nine months pregnant. Things like, "oh my you're big" and "You look like you're ready to pop."
It put a big smile on my face and brightened my day.

A place to catch up on our family going ons and a few of my thoughts every now and then.
About Me
Songs I'm singing
When you say nothing at all
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you light the dark
Try as I may, I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all.
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between heart and mine
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
Turn me on
Like a flower waiting to bloom
Like a light bulb in a dark room
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
Like the desert waiting for the rain
Like a school kid waiting for the spring
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
My poor heart it's been so dark
Since you've been gone
After all you're the one who turns me off
You're the only one who can turn me back on
My hi-fi is waiting for a new tune
My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
Turn me on
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart

That's so wonderful -- you're right, the compliments are a little rarer than the comments on size, etc.
I'm glad you shared that -- it proves there are still people left in this world who are in wonder and awe of pregnancy and new life!
That is so sweet!
Only a few days to go and you'll have your little girl. I'm so excited for you!
