Well, tomorrow I am officially 34 weeks along, and oh boy, is this Little One ready to come out! I just need him to hang tight a little longer.
I look forward to the days ahead of sleepless nights, poopy diapers, holding him in my arms, and hearing his little coos and cries as he grows older.
I yearn to be the mother to my son that he deserves – someone who loves him endlessly and might be a little “overbearing” at times because I love him so much. The word “fervent” comes to mind, which means displaying a passionate intensity. I desire to have fervent love for my son, every day, for as long as I live.
I wish for him to follow his dreams in life. He might not know what to do or what he wants, but I will be the mother to always put my foot forward and push him in “hopefully” the right direction introducing him to lots of things along the way. We will grow and learn together, that’s all I can hope for.
Pregnancy for me has been a roller coaster, but overall, I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. It’s an amazing feeling, and it makes those “not so good” moments, worth it in the end. I will remember these days, lying in bed, feeling him move while holding my belly, and just knowing everything will be okay.
Elijah Everett, I can 100% say I’m ready for you. ♡
