{This is gonna hurt just a little....}

October 29th, 2009

Wide awake again at 3am. You seem to enjoy disturbing me between 130 and 3 in the morning. Maybe those are just the hours you like to be awake? I can't have a night owl...I hope you grow out of this in the womb...If not Daddy's going to have a lot of late nights :) hahaha!

Anyways, I am slightly disturbed by the amount of pain I am feeling above my right ovary. Your Tia Lindsay said this was something called the Corpus Luteum but like I speak that language. I called the doctor just to be on the safe side and made an appointment to come in. To my surprise, I got another ultrasound!!

Here you are at 7 weeks!



Despite all the pain you are causing me, today was a truly remarkable day. Through my uncertain eyes and concerned voice, the doctor convinced me that all was well. She pointed to the ultrasound screen & asked if I saw the little flickering dot...
That's your little heart beating away at 140 beats per minute strong.

It was in this moment that I understood the miracle taking place here. Not only did I help create Life, I was chosen to carry life. Chosen by someone who I had since thought forgot about me long ago. If ever there was a moment when faith could be restored, it is now.

With the blinking of a little 7 week old heart, I am reborn in Him.
