16 Weeks

I do not know who you are, I know though that I already love you. You will be a big part of my life  and even though I have not met you yet, I know that you will be a delight. 

Today you are 16 weeks old, its the first scan-  meaning that I am not doubting this sickness and hormonal imbalances are all about you.  

Knowing you are coming brings me so much joy. When I realized you were there, I started to cry tears of joy, because for me; you are a what rain is to a sunflower, the sunshine that beams through my window and reminds me that in the midst of all the crap and the mess in this life, joy never ceases. And so I wait, wait  to meet you, to love you, to meet you and laugh with you.

 You may find this world crazy, sad and filled with war. Yet I want you to always remember that there is so much fun, good food, good books to read, laughter, shopping and so much more to hope for in this same world. There is so much beauty to see and that I sure hope you will get to see. To me you already seem so big for life, so right now I will  embrace the hope of your coming. And whatever name you have, I pray you will always have favor wherever you set your feet.
