Joy, you are one of the most beautiful pregnant woman I have ever seen. Of course, I think you are beautiful all the time. I can not wait to meet the baby. I am looking forward to my visit. Hopefully I won't be such an emotional wreck this time and can actually help you some. I love you and miss you.

P.S. I got to spend some time with Taylor, Sam & Jordan this past weekend and I must say, my niece and nephews are the greatest. I love being an aunt!

how wonderful to get to spend so much time with you this weekend. there was an unmistakable sereneness about you in your beautiful pregnancy that was so cool to be around (not to mention your general joy-ness, which i of course can never get enough of either and after a year and a half w/o, was definitely sucking up as much as i could as well). i can't believe i almost didn't get to see you all big and earth-goddess-y. as for this post, my heart just swelled the more i read to hear about where you are at, what you are feeling and doing. it just sounds like you are approaching it so well w/ so much wisdom, courage, and of course, humor. thank you so much for taking the time to share this even though you're life is full to overflowing w/o taking the time to lj.

wow, I feel so disconnected... I need to get together with you and give you my baby shower presents!!! Soon, soon.

I've been so worried about you getting settled into marriage and pregnancy and the US and everything. It sounds, though, like you are starting to get more comfortable (as much as you can be with a mini-you/Dan creature in your belly).

I'll be in Boulder soon. Sooooon. Muuh ha ha ha!!!

I want to babysit!!! Can I?? Can I Joy?? Can I please???!!!?? ;)

So glad you are doing well, and that you are posting again. I know sometimes I just feel a little too overwhelmed with life to try to explain it to people because I just don't completely get it myself. You sound like you are handling things beautifully! I can't wait to meet Baby J!
