I can’t wait to meet you.
I can already picture these moments in my head.
You swaddled in my arms as Brooklyn comes in to meet you for the first time.
You sleeping in a rock and play sweetly as I play with your sister.
And even the “not so pretty” moments – the sleepless nights and days where you won’t stop crying while your sister has another meltdown because that’s what toddlers do. But to me, it’s still a perfect moment because you’re both there.
The first year of your sister’s life I could not picture having more children. I love her so much it consumes my heart and truthfully at time scares me.
Then little by little I felt the pull. We didn’t feel complete. Someone was missing.
And now I get it already – my love for you doesn’t take an ounce of love away from her. Somehow my heart has doubled, maybe even tripled because I just keep loving you both more and more.
I can’t wait to meet you.
Will you have a personality like your sister? Strong willed and intense? She arrived 23 days early and now I fully understand why. Or will you be totally different? Either way, you will be “you” and that’s all that matters.
Stay cozy for now baby. I can’t wait to meet you in June.
not kidding at all … about four or five days ago i was at home just doing random stuff and out of the blue i started wondering when you were going to have another baby! nothing prompted it. i hadn’t been on here or been looking at your facebook or instagram. nothing that would have even made me think about you. yet somehow i knew it was coming!
i am so excited for you guys and for brooklyn to be a big sister. hopefully i can get up there one of these days and meet her and this new little-one-to-be! xo
Aww thank you and yes yes yes!!
It’s funny the other day as I was thinking about posting again and how much I sometimes miss writing I immediately thought of you. It seems like so long ago now that we both posted so consistently and frequently and I really miss that! I don’t know why it’s so hard to write these days – I love it so – but somehow it just doesn’t happen.
i feel exactly the same way. i think writing was therapeutic for us both and now our lives are full and happy. there’s only so many hours in the day and it’s far more more fun to live life than to simply write about it!
This was so sweet! Congratulations to you & your growing family. It was such a nice surprise to see this post pop up in my inbox this morning! I haven’t touched my blog in months but I still love reading them and following your posts on IG! Your daughter seems so spirited – I think she’s going to love having a new sibling to play with (& maybe boss around a little ☺️). It was nice to hear from you – take care!!!
