Growing heart

I've been thinking lately about how ones heart can expand when a new life enters the world...We are on the precipice of having our 2nd daughter in a few hours and I look at my 2 1/2 year old daughter Sadie as the apple of my eye - a certain reason for living and breathing. I still haven't quite grasped the concept that there will be 'another' and yet I will feel the same for her as I do Sadie. The simple idea boggles me.

I wonder if it will be like when you meet a new friend that becomes someone you love and trust over time. You didn't know them before and yet now, they are a crucial part to your daily life. Is it that organic and natural? Or, will it be a conscious thing...intentional to grow my heart. Obviously there are many families with multiple kids out there today in existence but the concept of the growing heart has fascinated me. How will it play out? Do you have to balance love for each kid or will that happen naturally?

I know my heart will grow...I just don't know how. I suppose i'll just leave that up to the Creator.

Personal Constitution

A friend of mine told me to create my own Personal Constitution and I've begun identifying items that I want to be about...

What do I want my life to be about?
