After work today, I headed to Charlotte for a baby shower that Jesse's co-workers were throwing for us. I was pleasantly surprised by how much effort they had put into making it a special afternoon. They had decorated, gotten a really yummy cake, and purchased a ton of gifts for Baby Eli. It was not only nice to be "showered" but also to meet some of his co-workers that I hadn't met before. Needless to say, it was a very good start to our weekend. I feel so blessed to have so many people who want to share in this special time....
