Our little blessing

As most if not all of you know Danny and I tried for 7 years before we were blessed with a miracle from God, here I am with who knows how long till Derek arrives it could really be any day now, but if he doesn't come on his own I will be induced one day next week, my due date is Tuesday! I've loved the song "Here" by Rascal Flatts since I first heard it, I know that in the song it talks about finding a love or significant other but for me it really has taken on a new meaning. I'm going to explain...

The chorus in itself is the one thing that is so true for me, "I wouldn't change a thing I'd walk right back through the rain, back to every broken heart on the day that it was breakin' and I'd relive all the years and be thankful for the tears I've cried with every stumbled step that led to you and got me here, right here. " It's so powerful I've had many broken hearts in the past 7 years almost once a month when I would start or when I took a pregnancy test and it was negative, those years truly made me the person that I am and those tears I am thankful for them, they are what has made this pregnancy journey the greatest gift I've ever received, without them I don't know that every moment I've felt my baby move inside my belly would have been so powerful, everytime I got to see his precious face on that ultrasound screen so moving, everytime I heard his heartbeat on the dopplar would make my heart skip a beat. I am so thankful that I got to experience that pain, that want, that desire because it's only going to make me a better Mommy. I am so beyond ready to hold my precious child in my arms, hear his cry, kiss his cheeks, look at those beautiful eyes, see that his nose really is mine and his lips really are his Daddy's, the moment that child comes into this world my life will forever change and in the best way possible. He is already so loved and spoiled, and I will make sure every single day that he knows how precious he is to me and how for so many years I've longed for him, and how thankful to God I am that he blessed us with a miracle.
