I'm so happy right now!!!
So I was in my bedroom changing and my cell rang, and the caller id said Illinois.
I pick up and say hello, and He says guess who??
Best 52 mins of my life right now.. I'm happy his division won the Captain's Cup so he was able to call, the only thing he has till graduation is BS. It was so good to hear his voice for almost an hour. I put him on speaker next to my stomach, because I told him I have heard babies can kind of hear sounds when they are around 20 weeks. It was sweet listening to him talk to my belly. I still haven't told him anything negative about my pregnancy besides him knowing I won't be at his graduation, I'm pretty sure the silence in other line meant he was concerned.
Hope everyone else had a great day because mine is actually perfect right now. :)
