Crossfit Mom-to-Be | Maternity Session

I've written and re-written this post ten times now. I just have so much to say and I could ramble on for days about this amazing lady that I am lucky enough to call my best friend. I think what it all comes down to is strength.

Over a decade long friendship with Shelly has been incredible. I know that I wouldn't be where I am at this very second in life without her by my side. There have been plenty of days where I wasn't strong enough to do life alone. I needed her. She never hesitated. We've laughed. We've cried. We've created memories that are irreplaceable. It's been an amazing journey and to see her becoming a Mom is one that has me laughing and crying tears of joy. I'm laughing because she has been there for all of my children's "events" including my children in all of their insane glory! Meltdowns. Terrible twos. Terrible threes. You know... all of it! And though she never once judged my little terrors...err.. I mean angels... She will now get to really experience it all! {haha!} Mostly, I'm crying tears of joy because I know that amidst all of the insanity of motherhood is the most rewarding and incredible journey that she will get to experience beginning now. Late nights and early mornings. Long days and FAST years. The kind of days that you really need strength for. Shelly's strength is immeasurable. Physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Shelly is going tobe an incredible Momma and I know that her little one is going to be super proud of the tough cookie he/she will get to call, "Mom." {oh sugar, I'm crying again.}

Here for you always and forever, bestow. Get ready for the ride of your life. x0x --A
