1st Mother's Day: A letter to SJ


Dear Stephen Jack/My Sweet Baby P, 

I woke up this morning to you kicking, harder than ever before. Normally you are pretty still first thing in the morning until I get something to eat or drink to wake you up. Not today, it was almost like you knew it was Mother's Day, like you wanted to remind me that even though you aren't here physically I am still your mom. I can't fathom loving you any more than I do today. However, with each passing day my love for you grows. To the point it almost scares me to know that soon enough you will be here and my heart will be existing outside of myself to grow with you as you become older every day. 

I hope you some day understand just how much you were wanted, wished for, prayed for every single day. You have saved me, without you I would be such a wreck. With your daddy overseas it is so easy to fall into a slump but with your kicks and wiggles it reminds me that I'm not alone in this journey. You remind me each and every day that I am stronger than I give myself credit for. You blessed us at just the right time and for that I couldn't be more thankful. I haven't even met you yet, but you know me better than probably anyone else. 

I love you so much already, I can't wait until I can hold you in my arms instead of only in my heart. Keep on cooking little love, I can be patient. Thank you for choosing me to be your mom. You are now, and always will be my greatest accomplishment. 

Love forever and ever, 

Mom







Until Next Time,
