Tomorrow's the Big Day!

Tomorrow is a big day for us.  We finally find out if our little baby growing is a girl or a boy.  I know finding out doesn't really change anything, but it makes everything feel so real for me.  Recently my belly has really grown and its such an amazing feeling.  I'm constantly staring at my stomach and rubbing it because I know my baby is actually resting there waiting to finally meet us.

Yesterday was Easter Sunday and at church we ran into the couple that mentored us during our pre-marital counseling and I didn't realize how much time has passed since we've seen eachother.  They asked how my baby was doing because the last time they saw me I was pregnant.  I remember when a question like that would really bring me tears, but instead I smiled and said "I'm expecting now!" and she looked down and saw my belly.  It reminded me of where I've been in the past year and how much I've wanted a baby.  Having multiple losses has brought me to a new level of appreciation of how delicate life can be.  For a while I was skipping through life with my little checklist of everything I dreamt of as a child and sometimes God has little setbacks for us for a reason.  I understand that.  So tomorrow is a huge milestone for me and being able to finally feel my baby kicking and moving can't be described in words.  I can't wait to see my baby tomorrow and before I know it I will finally be holding my baby boy or girl in my arms.
