For reals, eh?

So today, Fishy became really real to me. This must happen to all parents, & I bet a lot of the time it's when they hear the baby's heartbeat, or see the ultrasound, or feel the baby move for the first time. If nothing else, once the kid asks to borrow the car.

For me, it was none of those things. It was a knitting pattern. This knitting pattern, actually:

I was looking online at yarn, & found this pattern, & decided to get yarn in Philly or NYC to make one for Fishy. And it was when I was trying to imagine what Fishy would look like in this hat that it all sank in.

So. Holy crap. I'm going to be a MOM!
