So, people keep asking me if I am excited about tomorrow. Honestly, I'm not. I'm nervous and it just doesn't feel right to know what this baby is already! We had to wait nine months to find out that Ellie was a girl!
I'm nervous because starting tomorrow, I will officialy be a mommy to two chickies. I have to say that I am pretty attached to Ellie, and once we find out what this baby is, I will need to be attached to it, too. Of course, I will be reading this a year from now thinking how silly I was, but right now loving another child as much as I love Ellie is just hard to grasp! After all, I am her mommy and she depends on me for everything. I have special nicknames for her, we have songs we sing, kisses we give, prayers we say, and the list just keeps going.
I am sure all of you second-time moms who are reading are nodding your heads right now remembering these thoughts, too!
I keep reminding myself that God is blessing our family with another one of His miracles, and if He can do that, He can give me the love and affection that I need for this new baby. We'll let you know tomorrow what we find out!
