My sweet baby boy,
I was waiting for you.
Your father thought our family was perfect as it was but I knew something was missing. I fought for you. I needed you so badly my heart ached every day, I loved someone I never knew.
You came into this world crying but softly. Suddenly the world was finally in color, colors I never thought existed. The world was finally filled with love and kindness. A bird sang in your ear a melody made just for you.
When you were born I knew you were here to change the world.
I fought for you, a fight that I thought could have ended my marriage- but I knew. I knew you were the missing piece to the simple and at the same time complicated family puzzle.
You are wild like a horse that runs just because it can. You are sweet like a peach on a warm summer day. You are a handful, you just are but there is nobody else I would want my hands full with.
I am so happy I get to be your mother and see the world all over again. I love the song the bird is singing in your ear and I hope it never ends.
Love, Mommy

I had two beautiful girls and when they were 3 and 2 years old I fell pregnant again...and lost the baby. I did a lot of soul searching about whether 2 was enough, but every time I thought about life as the mother of two, my heart froze and I got breathless and panicky...one year later I gave birth to another wonder girl and life became purposeful and complete. The heart just knows....
