I can't imagine what my life is going to be like in 3 days. I know there are going to be hard times, sleepless nights, and trails between my husband I about what to do and how to handle the new blessing in our life. Our son. What an amazing blessing God is giving us after so many years. It has been hard to always stay positive for the past 9 months. I admit, there have been tears, frustration and anger at times. It was always followed by a prayer and an I'm sorry. I never want to take for granted what so many others do. I have waiting so long for this. The years, the 3 miscarriages, the shots, the baby coming late, and the c-section
were not ever part of my plan. Would I do it all over again? Absolutely. On Wednesday when I hold my baby boy in my arms none of that is going to matter. On Thursday and Friday and the days after when I am sore and tired, none of that is going to matter. When he smiles for the first time, says his first word, takes his first step, none of that is going to matter. All that matters is Matthew is healthy, happy, and given back to God to do something amazing for His kingdom.
I don't know what I would have done without the support of my husband, mom, family and friends. So many of you believed even when I didn't. I thank each of you for being there for me in different ways.
You and Greg are so worthy of your new blessing. Matthew James Foster will be blessed and is already blessed having you two as his parents. Oftentimes the adage, "You get what you give" is used in a negative light, but in your case, Kia, everyone can see it in a positive hue and know you all harvested this sweet gift! I'm always here if you need me!
