A Dozen Days |

Posted at Friday, April 25, 2008 |
Almost nine months ago, I remember telling your mum that she's probably not pregnant, even though she was pretty sure she was. I was telling her that we couldn't be so lucky. But when I saw that blue line, I was glad we were. I still remember calling my parents to tell them the good news. I was pretty much at a loss for words then.
I was truly happy beyond words. But your mum was afraid. It was afterall going to be a much more trying experience for her than me. I think we were both full of questions on whether we were truly prepared for your arrival in our lives. It's been a tiring nine months for your mum but I think we're as prepared for you now as anyone possibly can be.
The first time we saw you - we were both amazed that you were so small. We seemed to measure our lives based on the next visit to the hospital to see you. Each month was a milestone - a major step towards holding you in our arms.
And so nine months later, here we are. Less than two weeks and you'll be out. Sometimes, I just can't seem to concentrate on much else but think of what you'll be like. You'll probably bring us more headaches than we ever thought possible. But in the end you'll also bring us more joy than we would ever know... |
