Donna were the gracious hosts. The idea of a Sprinkle is to be a lighter version of a full-blown Shower, common for baby's that come after the first. But, the haul of gifts was about as large as the original take with Kole - less the major items like car seats, etc.Karissa now has a ton of clothes - sized all the way out to when she's beyond 1-year old. It's a reminder of how blessed we are to have so many kind, caring and giving family and friends who love us.
Also in attendance were Grandma (Joan), PawPaw (Gary Don) & Grams (Kay), my Aunt Eva, Aunt Doris, stepsister
s Shanna and Alison, family friends Ava and Donna, neighbor friends Amie and Mako, Kathy's friends Debbie, Carolanne, Sharon and later Samantha.The hostesses made one of Kathy's recent cravings - strawberry cake, and other goodies. It was a good gathering, a very generous one, and by the day Kathy seemingly did nothing but open gifts and was gassed as if she had just run around the block, barely able to get off the couch after everyone had left.
The fatigue has definitely set in, and now - entering the 38th week - she's at the point of being breathless while walking around the kitchen to make Kole and herself breakfast. She's a trooper.
One more week!
