Elle.

It was less than a year ago, when God introduced me to the most rewarding blessing I could never have imagined I deserved. Me? A mother? Say it isn't so. But it was. A stick in a box, showed me a faint pink line, that confirmed my future. & with that, my entire world would never be the same. back then she was just a thought, a mere piece of what I imagined would be so beautiful & she was.

She made herself known from the very first day. Made my insides twist & turn every which way they could. Her presence demanded attention, & that's exactly what I gave to her. My whole life was now hers to keep. She stole my heart the very first time I saw her on that ultrasound screen. No bigger than a peanut, she held the greatest piece of my heart. I fell so deep in a love I'd never knew my heart could feel. I almost didn't understand how I could love someone I'd never seen, never touched, never spoken a single word to. & even when she caused me unbearable pain, still, I loved her, even more intensely if possible. The fact that God allowed me to bear this child, gave me some kind of purpose. The kind I'd always searched for. When I couldn't understand why some people couldn't love the way I needed them to love me, this was the answer. He was saving my love, for this little girl. & he knew that one day I'd understand & give her EVERYTHING.
