If he's not here this week, I'll be induced on Monday the 8th. I get butterflies just thinking about it :) I'm honestly a nervous wreck, with so many questions! Like what is he going to look like? Will everything go smoothly?How terribly painful is giving birth going to be? lol
I'm also quiet full of mixed emotions, I'm torn between being happy and of course a little upset. I'm so happy for Candace, Brett and my little soybean (that's Sawyer's nickname:) ). I never thought that i could bring so much joy to 2 people. Sawyer will be the happiest little baby, which brings me the most happiness. I'm looking forward to seeing all of their reactions, when they finally meet for the first time. But, i sure am going to miss looking down an seeing him there, feeling those little kicks, an punches, rubbing my tummy an talking to him. This little guy has taught me so much, an he's not even born yet! He's taught me not to care what people think, he's made me mature quite a bit, made me care about my education an success. I'm so thankful he was brought to all of us, he's the most loved baby in the world :) Oh Sawyer, when will you bless us all with your presence? :)

ReplyDeleteLauren and Jason,
ReplyDeleteI am a friend of Candace and Brett's and my husband and I are also hoping to adopt. Reading your couple posts has totally made me fall in love with you both, and cry. You are amazing people, mature beyond your years, and among the most unselfish in the world. I'm sure you already know how much Candace and Brett love you guys, and how thankful they are for you. But I hope you know that there is a whole army of us grateful for your unselfish sacrifice, that love and respect you, and are praying for you. I pray you will be able to find peace and eventually joy in the healing process you will be going through. Thank you so much for hte gift you have given - I hope you will be able to comprehend the magnitude of it.
Love,
Amanda Colby
