Well finally Momma has given me something to post! I'm going to let her do the talking, but I do want to point out that I did edit her original document but only to correct grammatical errors, punctuation, you know the little things. So without further ado, Momma...
So as my world turns I find myself getting dizzier and dizzier! Its amazing how one moment can change your entire life. One night of love between you and your husband to be, and suddenly my body starts morphing into this baby making machine, creating a true beauty of nature. I now walk with a waddle and sport a huge bump in front of me like a representation of my love! I must admit though I do like all the chivalry that is brought out of complete strangers. Gentlemen actually opening doors for me, bus drivers lowering the bus when I board, and not having to lift anything heavy! Then there are the knowing looks you get from other Moms when you are out and about. The silent connection we have with each other that transcends words. The soft smile you receive from veteran Moms when you're pregnant with your first child speaks a thousand words. Daddy has been so good with me too, putting up with my mood swings, outbursts of tears and running back and forth everywhere for me so I don't have to get up!
Everyday brings new questions, and new experiences. So many days to wait for, the first day we get to hear his heartbeat. His first kicks, then knowing when he can hear us and respond back. Our first hellos! I will be sitting complaining about how tired I am or how uncomfortable I feel, then a swift kick from inside me and a smile instantly replaces the frown I wore a second ago! That's my baby!
Now I stand 2 months away from my life changing all over again. Will this time fly by, or be the slowest months of my life. What will happen in between? This has been such a dream for me! I can't wait to spend forever with the cutest boys ever. No one has ever seemed to stay in my life and now I have 2 souls that will stay with me forever, along with new families I have acquired which is a blessing because it really does take a village to raise a child. Without the help of everyone around me this would all seem so hopeless. I receive guidance from all of our families. They are holding us both up! Blueberry you are a very lucky baby, I can't wait to meet you! It's like having the best gift in the world sitting under the Christmas tree wrapped up in the most beautiful wrapping paper and ribbons, and having to wait 9 whole months before you can see whats inside! You can hold it and feel it's shape but you can't have it until what seems like forever, (and for anyone who knows me, this is torture)!
For now I will wait and enjoy every kick and hiccup of his I feel. I will sleep in and rest for as long as I can, for soon I won't have the chance! I love this baby so much and I love my other half in a whole new way. Its funny how some people go through their entire life not sure what they're doing here, what they're supposed to be, and what is worth real value in life, love or money!? For everyone it is different, you have to find what matters to you, and I know for me it's this. It's sharing the moments of our first child with the man I love. It's laying in the dark, Daddy listening to our baby's movements from within me. It's the highs and lows of giving birth, having Daddy there holding my hand, tears rushing over him as our baby is placed in our arms. Feeling our baby's finger hold on to ours so tightly. The first night Daddy puts Blueberry to bed, holding our baby so close to his chest, where he can feel his heartbeat best. This is where my life lies! This is where my riches lay and where my meaning rests. All those years wondering, all to bring me to where I stand now, blessed! I have the wonder of life inside me and there is nothing greater than that, and I couldn't be doing this with anyone else. My rock, my love, my angel. He has grown into a beautiful man who is going to be an amazing father. Together we will have the best of the days and the sweetest nights! I love you baby! I love you both!
