Pregnancy







Well I must say that I am absolutely LOVING this being pregnant deal!! The connection between Yoda and I is already so tight, I can only imagine what it will be like when we finally meet face to face. We are so in love with this child. But back to being pregnant, OMG how wonderful it is, feeling Yoda move all around and react to things that happen around me. It is breath taking to hear the heartbeat, and to know that every move that he/she makes is all him/her. He/she has this personality like no one else.

I always thought that I would love being pregnant, and even after we lost Brighton(our 9wk miscarriage) I have said that I could be pregnant for longer than the 9/10 mths it takes for them to develop. Now that we are here again given another chance, yep it is even more exhilarating than I had thought it to be. I can't wait to see how it all pans out, but I am content in enjoying it while it lasts. I mean I really don't know who wouldn't love it, it is the most amazing feeling I have ever felt. It's really hard to explain, but the fact that this is exactly what I was created to do. God sure does know how to make things work huh.

Chris is so excited to be going through all of this, I never thought in a million years that I would have married such a wonderful man, one who loves this baby, and wants it as much as I do. We really have a great relationship, you know the kind where there are actually 2parts, and each 1/2 makes the other better. I don't know how much better I make him, but he always says that the reason God brought him to NC was to find me. He accentuates everything about me though, from my spirituality all the way down to the way I talk. Having a baby with him is gonna be so amazing! I love it when we are laying in bed and he puts his hand on my belly to see if Yoda is swimming around, or this morning when he kissed me goodbye, then pulled down the covers to kiss my belly and tell Yoda bye. He is gonna be the best daddy!!

We are just so grateful to have this opportunity that not everyone has, and the chance to feel what it is like moment for moment. Life is such a blessing, not something to be taken for granted, and I can honestly say that after this experience I will never do that again. Each day we live is a gift, everything we experience pulls together to make it just that. Good and bad, we wouldn't appreciate it as much if we didn't endure both. Thank you Lord for being so thoughtful.
