I knew the trials of pregnancy would be worth it, but I really didn't know it would be so wonderful. My heart if so full. I haven't felt this fulfilled since I realized not only was I marrying the man of my dreams, but I'd have him for eternity.
It is difficult to be selfish right now. The moments I think about how I want more sleep, my head hurts, or the ways my body aches disappear the instant I see that beautiful baby girl. Nothing else matters except her needs, her comfort, her happiness. There is so much joy in thinking about someone other than yourself.
At this point I can't fathom living a life without this joy. I am so grateful we took this leap, and that I have such a wonderful supportive husband. I'm grateful to provide an emotionally stable home full of love and peace.
For those of you I may or may not know that say you'll never have kids, I hope you seriously reconsider. This is the best thing that could possibly have happened to me.
To my darling Brielle, I only hope I can be as much a blessing to you as you are to me.
