Awaiting Reed

12/2/12

Reed should be here any day now I am due on December 7th less than a week away.  I have been really doing a lot of thinking lately about the baby we lost and the baby that is about to come into this world.  I am so excited to be able to finally hold baby Reed in my arms, to look into his eye and finally be able to see the blessing that God has given to Jesse and I.  I am scared about our life to come and how much our life is going to change.  I can't wait for the next few days/weeks/month/years my heart is so big with wonder and excitement.

Well I haven't wrote on here a lot lately, without looking back I think the last time I really wrote on here I wrote about my miscarriage which happened a little over a year ago.  Over one year ago on November 21, 2012 we lost our first baby.  I wasn't even pregnant for 8 weeks but the pain of losing a child was extremely real to me and us.  One year later we are days away from welcoming baby number two into the world.  My second pregnancy a son will join us any day now. I can't help think how bitter sweet it is that both pregnancies happened so closely together.  It brings me comfort to think that there is a reason they are so close together and that baby H is watching over Reed.
