“There are lives I can imagine without children but none of them have the same laughter & noise.” — Story People

All my life, I’ve known I’ve wanted to have children.  Being a mother seemed like the greatest calling upon my life…the most significant thing I could do personally to impact my world.  However, there are no words that can describe the feeling you experience when this happens.  I couldn’t have imagined that I could love one little person so much.  I never thought I could love Charlotte as much as I love Henry.  But I do.  Now there is one more little one sharing, breaking, stretching my heart…

Meet Clive.  He’s pretty awesome :)

 

 

He came fast and furious on Wednesday after a morning of “is this really it?” “when should we head to the hospital?”  “how long can I wait it out?”  :)  Well, turns out it’s a good thing we got there when we did, because an hour after getting admitted, I was pushing this little guy out!

Another reason to get up in the morning.  Another reason to be a better “me”.  Another reason to praise the God from whom all blessings flow.  Another reason to fall madly & deeply in love with my husband over & over again.

 

 

Off to snuggle with this little person we made… 

xo,

S
