Day 282 – There is an alien inside of me!

Thirty Weeks, Two Days. Day 214 in the quest to meet our little miracle George, 68 days to go…

To me dearest little miracle,

As you read the days past, as you learn more about me, as the days go by and my confidence grows, we both will learn that while there are many things about pregnancy i do not like, there are a few things each day which make me smile, and bring the most joy your father and i have ever experienced.

Last night as i lay in bed with our puppy beside me, you began kicking… As the kicks got stronger i pulled my night shirt over my belly and watched… You tossed and turned, you kicked and you danced like you have never danced before, and all i could see was my little (or big) belly moving around like there was an alien in side of me!

I wish now that i had thought of getting the video out, but maybe another night…

It was the most amazing thing i have ever experienced, the most joy i have ever felt in my life, and call it pregnancy hormones or call it over emotional – i dont know, but there were tears welling up in my eyes…. It really was the most precious day so far in this journey… I will never let go of the fact that no matter what happens i have a wonderful memory that will be forever in my heart, and when i need a smile i will know just what to think of…

As the days go by and the time ticks on, we realise the path we have traveled in life has lead us to an existence which is full on unimaginable beauty, and in ever way is perfect… Cheryl Schull
