When I walk into a room and all I see is love in my husband's eyes for both me and our children. When he calls just to ask how I'm feeling. When I eat a piece of chocolate or lay on my back and I can feel their little kicks. Nothing big, no one else can even feel them. It's like they are saying "Hi Mommy, we're still here. Don't worry about us." I love it! I love my not so little baby bump.
I may be miserable and in pain most of the time but I love the reason behind that pain. Yes, my back aches 24/7. Yes, I still get sick. Yes, I eat all the time but have still not gained a pound. Yes, I sleep most of the day. For so long I never thought that this would become a reality and that is why I fully plan on enjoying every little detail. The good and the bad. Our children are proof that God answers prayers. Not always in the way you had thought or in your preset timeline. I take every day, every minute, every bathroom trip, every stretch mark, every late night craving as a blessing that I pray I will never take for granted.
Amen!
