It's a...

Dear little one in the womb, Today I got a peak at you. For about an hour I watched as the ultra sound technician took all of the measurements, checked on all of your major organs, and made sure all was well. And baby, as at peace as I was throughout the day, I still held my breath a little and was silently uttering prayers through out this process. Prayers that you would be healthy. Prayers that you were growing as you should. My heart feels like it could just about burst with happiness! You are healthy, a great size, active, and a boy. Another boy! I have to be honest and say that our minds were geared a bit towards entertaining thoughts of what life would be like if we added a daughter to the mix here. I would be lying if I said there weren't a few moments of adjusting my thinking to the fact that we will not know what that is like. Oh - but in the next few seconds I watched your hands go to your face and you tried to suck your thumb. You turned, as if to face us. You were moving all around and I just grinned, and grinned, and couldn't stop grinning. Wow do we love you. This part always has surprised me a bit. Just how much you can love some one you've never seen face to face. I truly can hardly wait to watch you with your brothers. Yes, I get a touch tired even just thinking about it. Raising four boys. Oh my oh my! :) But what an amazing privilege! Praising God for you, our baby boy, Love mommy
