For those who don't know, I am a now a woman of new beginnings. I'm 30 years old and expecting my first child with my fiance of four years. Not only is this a new chapter in my life that seems perilous right now, but it's also the most important thing that could happen to me in my life and I could never be happier. I am surrounded by a loving family here and circle of friends that will make my new transition seamless. I lost both my parents in a 3 year period and each passing day I think about them and wish they were here in body not just in spirit. I just finished school in October so one my biggest goals have been achieved. I feel accomplished. I am very in tune with my senses and enjoy many things that are sensual. I learned to enjoy life's simplest pleasures: The smell of rain on a Spring day. The sound of thunder during a rainstorm. The taste of chocolate-dipped strawberries. The smell of baby powder and fresh towels. The feel of clean socks against my feet. The sound of laughter coming from children. The sound of my unborn baby's heartbeat. The touch of my soft fleece blanket. The warmth from my fiance's hugs. My favorite song on the radio. The way my hair feels after leaving the salon. The way I feel after eating my favorite Sunday dinner. The smell of cupcakes in the oven. The words of accolades and recognition from my peers. The sounds of my sisters voices on the phone. The smell of Joanne cooking "Iron Chef" style in the kitchen. The smell of Tim Horton's coffee first thing in the morning. The scent of my mother's favorite perfume on my sweater. The smell of hot dogs and hamburgers grilling in the summer. The smell of pumpkin and spice around the holidays. The smells of Christmas and crisp snow air. I'm going to live each day like it's my last...
