As I prepare to be a mommy for the second time, I think about my little Isaiah. Not only will my life be changing but his life will be changing also. He will no longer be our only child and he will soon become a big brother! I worry about how he will react and how he will feel. I want him to know that our love for him will not change and never will. He has been so loving during the pregnancy that it comforts me. I can tell he loves Nicholas or as he calls him, "Mick-us", and he will be a caring big brother. I also think about my love for Nicholas. It sounds silly, but my love for Isaiah is just so immense, could I love another human being just as much!? It's simply amazing to be a mother and it brings tears to my eyes (happy tears!) knowing that I could love with all my heart so unconditionally. It is a blessing to be a woman and be able to feel the miracle of life forming in my belly. Incredible! Moreover, Isaiah and Nicholas will have all the love in the world, not just from us but from our extended family. The love that exists among our family is beautiful and I am beyond grateful for their love and support. This will be the love that Isaiah and Nicholas will know and have for each other.
As my pregnancy comes to it's final days/weeks, I will soak up the wonderful feeling of his movement in my belly and and hope to always remember just how beautiful it is to bring a lovely and perfect being into the world.
