Almost...


Dear Wyatt,

As I sit her writing you this letter while you flutter away in my belly, I cannot help but get sentimental. I am 37 weeks pregnant with you, sweet angel, and so ready to meet you. I cannot wait until they plop your gooey self on my chest right after you arrive. I will examine your fingers and toes anxiously awaiting to kiss them over and over. I will stare into your perfect little face and see a glimpse of God and Heaven. I will smell you eternally loving the quiet moments we have together; that is, until your two crazy brothers arrive to meet you.

As excited as I am to see whether you will be completely bald or have loads of hair like your siblings, I almost secretly desire for you to stay in just a little longer. Yes, mommy is uncomfortable, ready to be done, yada yada yada, but this time that we have together, now, is priceless. I am so blessed to be a woman and have the privilege of carrying you in my belly. It is a gift from God; absolutely magical. I will miss your flutters, bumps, and kicks and those moments when you make mommy look like she has an alien trying to escape her mid-section. Most of all, I will miss you. I will miss our special talks and those quiet moments, like now, when it is just you and I and it seems like no one else exists.

I must thank you, already, for being my son. I am blessed by you everyday. I am excited to watch you grow and flourish and witness the story that God has written for your life unfold. One favor I do ask, though, please do not grow up too fast. Know that you will always be my baby and my blessing.

All My Love Through Eternity,
Mommy

So beautiful. And a letter that Wyatt will cherish always. I'm so very excited for you, Megan...what an amazing blessing from God...carrying this precious gift. I totally get wanting to keep him in your belly a little longer. Enjoy these last few days, friend...keeping him all to yourself. Once he's out, he's free game to everyone to hold, love, and spoil.....and I personally cannot wait to meet him!

Our Miracle

"He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted." Job 9:10 "You are the God who performs miracles; You will display Your power among the peoples." Psalm 77:14 Meet our miracle...and our secret. Yes, it is true. I am pregnant; about twelve weeks and a few days to be exact. We wanted to make sure this baby was healthy before announcing how great God has been to us! We have known about this precious little blessing for a little over two months and have eagerly awaited numerous sonogram and test results. We have witnessed God's mighty, yet gentle, hand every Tuesday for the past five weeks. This baby is a fighter. However, the road is not "clear" quite yet. We met with the pareanatoligist today to do a sonogram and blood test to determine if there are any chromosomal abnormalities; specifically Downs, and Trisomy 13 and 18. Although the sonogram looked great and the doctor said we were in the "safe zone," we are stil

Don't Lose You

When Jackson was a baby, I would hop into my car on my lunch break and rush to his day care to see him. I had thirty minutes with my baby and I needed every last second. I was a mess of a new mom and had a really hard time leaving him everyday. I was caught in the conundrum of loving teaching with all that I was and loving being a mom desperately wanting to stay home. I established a neat relationship with Jack's care-takers. They were a little older than me and much wiser. They will never fully know how appreciative I am for their advice and comfort during those beginning moments as a mama. When I decided to leave my teaching career and move halfway across the country to do so, they gave me a piece of advice that I didn't take seriously initially but now hold dear. They told me I had to find something for me. They watched me finish my master's that year and knew I was the type that needed to be doing. They recognized that I was about to enter a season where I had to hold

Monday Musings~You have been called...

"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:13-14 ...to pray. Meet our newest addition; baby Fish. I am officially 8 weeks four days pregnant! PRAISE GOD!!!! We saw our precious miracle today for the second time; heart flickering away on the monitor with little arm and leg buds beginning to form. The doctor gave us a great report telling us that everything looks perfect...can't get any better than that. God is so good to us. We are blessed beyond belief to experience the miracle of life once again. Please pray for our growing family and our precious growing angel. We feel the presence of God daily and welcome and need your prayers.
