"Hello little one!" part 2

Hey everyone! would'ya like to hear from the proud pappy to be? Of course you would. First of all, let me give a big shout out to my baby sis Tiara who just recently had a baby herself; little Isaiah with her husband Richard. They have a great blog which inspired Sonia and I to do one for ourselves.



This miracle that Sonia and I are sharing can be really overwhelming when you consider the years of hope and heartbreak that preceded it. As Sonia pointed out, infertility can take you right to the brink of despair. Keeping that in mind, it is my hope that this record of our journey together will also serve as a reminder that there is a plan, or a destiny that is absolutely unique to each of us. I've learned that there is no better fight than the fight that maintains your faith against every setback.



So my wife is pregnant! I can't look at her without thinking about our baby growing inside of her. She's absosmurfly beautiful! My mind is ALL over the place these days. At different times I feel, overjoyed, scared, excited worried, silly, grouchy, (Sonia get OFF the treadmill already! as a matter of fact, don't do ANYTHING! just sit on the couch with your hands crossed for the next 7 and a half months and watch "Maury", but dont get any ideas, you KNOW who da baby daddy is!), but most of all I feel blessed. No, more than even that, I feel anointed. Everything is deeper when you've shed more than a few tears over it. This life is for you God.



"Hello little one!" is how I greet our unborn child every time I talk through Sonias belly. We've seen the ultrasounds, and heard the heartbeat. Our little dream is becoming more real every moment, so every moment we have, we thank God. There's alot to write about, but I'll chill for now. Stay tuned! This is gonna be good...

Hey guys! I love it! I feel almost as happy about your little one as I did when I found out about Isaiah. You guys are going to be such amazing parents. I love you both and I will be reading regularly! BTW, I did figure out how to put a link to this on my blog (with no help from you Marc!).
Love you guys,
Tiara and Richard

Hey Marc and Sonia,

I just realized I read the "pappy" part yesterday too. Marc - you and Sonia express yourselves so beautifully! I guess I read it so fast and just wanted to comment as soon as I could. Even though this is such a happy time, I can't help but get all teary thinking about how long you waited and how very special this time is. Enjoy every moment! You are going to be great parents!
