all around









Reece- that is the name that we have decided to bestow upon your beautiful heart. It means outgoing or fiery one. I think this seems apt as how active you have been in the womb.

I am now 34 weeks pregnant with you. We were so shocked to find we would be having a little girl! A girl- daddy is unsure and your brother Foster doesn't understand yet. I'm anxious about the transition for Foster because he's a mommy's boy. I know you'll be taking up my lap soon and I worry how he'll react. He's so loving so I think he'll fall in love with you quickly. Being pregnant with you has not been comfortable- but I don't assume that being pregnant should be. I'm anxious to meet you and hoping that we don't have to wait until 42 weeks to do so.



I am so grateful because they tell me you're healthy, with big lips, and lots of hair. I'm dreaming of another baby that looks like Foster. He is such a mix of daddy and I.



I want you, Reece, to know how much you are wanted. That daddy and I both dreamed of a family and you're completing that circle. So get here soon and get here safely. We can't wait to watch you grow and cherish you.

Peace









Life is juggling. Each role requires of us. Always wondering if we're getting it right?





"Every day I try to do better. See better. say better. talk better. be better. i do my best. and i blow it 10 times out of 12. I ask for forgiveness of anyone whose feelings I may have hurt. I ask forgiveness of God. I forgive myself. And then I start again." -Maya Angelou



I find forgiving myself the hardest of all. I keep trying.
