i realize it isn’t about me.
it’s you i am hoping for.
i hope you come home safely,
and that you just as beautiful as you are in my dreams.
it is hard to imagine how i will be so uninvolved in your coming here,
how i can only beg to have you right by me at all times,
and at best i will get a “we’ll see what we can do”
from the people i had so much faith in handling a natural birth.
i would be lying if i said i wasn’t nervous to do this.
i definitely do not have the confidence i did a few weeks ago,
but i am still so excited to be the arms at the end of it.
i can’t wait to meet you kiddo,
and to get your cute head out from under my ribs
where i can enjoy looking at you!
{i have to admit,
i will miss the little heel that is constantly poking through my side…}
i guess knowing when you are coming is still odd,
but it means grandma will be here in plenty of time,
dad was able to get some time off work,
and i know i will eventually get a prize at the end of this emotional ride.
on sunday i talked to a few ladies that let me know
“you still have time” or “my baby turned 3 days before!”
i had to sing right after these encounters,
and was so worried i would run out of breath…
turns out i didn’t,
but i was too uncomfortable and emotional to make it 3 hours…
to be honest,
if you do turn and decide to “make like a baby”
within the next 5 days,
great.
otherwise, my little Boss,
i will see you on Monday,
i will be the one in the ugly blue cap,
with lots and lots of tears…
love,
mom
That just made my entire day and quite possibly burst my heartstrings, because that was so sweet. I want a baby now. (S'pose i better find a man first..hmm) Thanks Meg 🙂
You are a wonder. Can't wait to hold little Boston and let him know that he is loved and waited for happily. Now get some rest. Sigh.<br /><br />What the? Word recognition is existo……. it's an omen.
Can't wait to meet you Boston! We're all so anxious for your coming. Thinking of you both!
Look at you, already a fantastic momma! Monday will be a beautiful day!!
Thinking of you! and sweet little Boston. We are praying so much for you guys. and isn't it fun to be called "mom"? Love you!
