A couple of things I've observed in the week or so since Maria Grace was born:
- Women have superpowers. Childbirth is no joke.
- There's no paranoia quite like having a newborn and wondering every moment whether she'll be okay from one second to the next.
- Babies have no sense of regular time.
- You should really sleep when the baby sleeps, or you will not at all.
- I have truly wonderful set of grandparents on both sides, a loving and kind church family, and encouraging family and friends galore. We are truly blessed. Thank you.
