Lucky Charms

see these charms?  i've had them since i was a teenager.  your grandma O gave them to me to wear when i was pregnant, so here we FINALLY are!  i wasnt sure if it would ever even happen.  the set came with a stork, a pacifier, and baby shoes.  as soon as i found out that i was pregnant, i went into my jewelry stand (yes, its a stand) and fished out what i would wear every second of this pregnancy, for good luck.  i decided to wear the shoes and the pacifier until you're born and then switch over to just the stork after you're born.  i had these gold hoop earrings that just werent doing it for me, so i deconstructed them and added a hoop to the chain.  for, you know, flare.  i had to buy a gold chain since i usually wear silver or white gold.  i've always liked yellow gold, but just not as much.  its worth more, thats for sure.  but, this is about sentiment and superstition, so gold it is! 

my good luck charms, just like you.  three is my favorite number and you're my #3.  not only that, but you were conceived in the seventh year of our marriage.  we married on 7/07/07.  threes and sevens and thirteens run rampant through our life.  its quite amazing, really.  you were no exception.
