"I am most excited to be a mom because my husband and I have dreamed of this day since we were married 3 years ago. We then started trying to conceive in December 2008. We've now had 2 miscarriages and having those dreams dashed was heart wrenching. This is now my 3rd pregnancy and after guarding our hearts through the first trimester we feel like we can actually get excited and see our dream coming true. We are most excited because we have dreamed of this day for so many months and to see a light at the end of the tunnel and having a baby to hold in our arms is simply priceless."

Congratulations Abby!

**Mommy Giveaway**

If you have visited my store than I'm sure you've seen the sparkling "Dream" garland that I make. I made it with the hopes of them being hung in the sweetest of nurseries, and with the overflow of baby announcements recently, I think it's only fitting that I give one of my garlands away to a Mommy or Mommy-To-Be.
