Baby Shower :/

I know it's too early to think about hosting a baby shower for Eva but I can't stop thinking about it.  I think I need 6 months just to try to convince myself to do it.  I haven't been to one in almost 15 years because it hurts too much to attend one.  I'm going to be a grandmother and I want to support my daughter.  I feel very conflicted.  Should I ask someone else to do it for me?  Anyone have any advice for me.  I want to do the right thing but save my sanity too.

Adopting young adult.

My husband and I are in the process of adopting, Eva, a former foster child, who will be 22 next month.  She came to us at 15 and left at 16.  She came back to us a year ago and we have reestablished a relationship with her and she is progressing very nicely and we love her very much.  Also, Eva is 8 weeks and 2 days pregnant today.  She and her boyfriend are working hard trying to save money for when the baby comes.  She is due in February.

From my fans!

Thanks so much for all of your support and feedback.  It's much appreciated.  Here are a few kind words from my FB and Twitter followers.

FB-"Great book!!! I too have endo stage 4 and u have inspired me to tell my story."

 " just finished ur book. I am moved beyond words! You are an inspiration in SO many ways!! Every1 needs a copy! "

FB-"as a woman that is newly dealing with the possiblity of not becoming a mother due to a miscarriage and many failed iui attempts, this book is very helpful. its comforting to know that there are other people that understand that feelings that come along with this. I recommended on my own page that people, with and without children read your book.....it can be hard for people that have children easily to understand what we who cannot go through on a daily basis. Thank you for this book!"
         -"well, your book helped me not feel like the only person in the world that deals with this.... i thank you for that"
