Yes, tonight is the last night that I will be pregnant.. that I know of for now?!
Tomorrow morning we go in and have our scheduled C-section and we will be a family of four! I am very excited, yet, at times I am a little scared..not sure of exactly what I'm scared of, but I just am.
The first thing I think of is this lovely miracle that God has intrusted me with and I get to be a mommy to a little girl.. so loving that part!! I also think of my own mother and the things she taught me while she was living. I hope to pass on several things I learned from her, add my own, and obviously learn from others because I know I'll need advice as I go along! Having lost my mother in my 20's and trying to raise my son (and soon-to-be daughter) without her advice has definitely had its tough days, but I am very proud to say that my husband and I have managed to take care of the one child we have so far without too much havoc.. so we're hoping that two will not be too hard. I hear some muffled laughing out in the internet world tonight.. yes, I know, its a funny thought?!
One of the last things I think of is that wonderful question I mentioned in my last post.. is this our last child? Will we adopt another one? Will we find that two is just the right number for us? I can only say that what brings me peace is knowing the Lord will answer all of these questions over time and I don't need to worry about it right now.
I have all kinds of hopes and dreams for my new little baby girl, and of course for my son, too. I am looking forward to the wonderful life of having two kids and the wild adventure we are sure to have.. I can only pray for health and happiness for all..and right now..to all a good nite!
