Just found you!

Baby, I just found you yesterday. I knew that you must be here because my dreams were so real that you were on your way. We have been trying to make you for over a year. I remember October 2011. We were on our way to meet with my parents to go through the Corn Maze. Sitting at Subway I told your dad that I wanted to try for you. He was surprised since we had talked about waiting. The next day at church my good friend Vicky walked up to me. She said, "Stacy, do you remember a couple months ago when I told you that I had a word from the Lord for you, but it wasn't time yet?" I did, I believe in God's prophecy alive today, and I did remember. She said, "It's time." Time for what? I thought. She said, "Time for you to be a mama." I knew that this was conformation for what I had been praying for. Since then we have patiently awaited the moment when God would form you in my womb. We have never felt pressured or rushed; we have always trusted in God's perfect timing and that you would come when everything was in place for you.
I had been feeling a little funny, and the doctors gave me prednisone for allergies, and a Z-pack for my lungs since I had a fever. They figured you were an infection. I don't blame them, my body was so different! I found out today that fever, fatigue, and high heart rate are natural in you first weeks of pregnancy. My body was working overtime. Well, the night of May 15th, I dreamt of you. I dreamt that I woke up and took a pregnancy test and it was positive, over and over. When I woke up, I knew that you here. I ran to the bathroom and took the "First Response" test I had saved for this day. As the lines began to appear, I thought I was seeing things, I had seen a one-line response so many times. Here, in front of my eyes, was two lines. I laughed quietly since your dad was still sleeping. I lifted my eyes and praised God for his faithfulness. His promises are always true. I sat on you dad and woke him up. I couldn't wait, so I held up the test. He was still so sleepy, he said, "Two lines." Then his face went from confused to overjoyed and he hugged me and smiled and we laughed together. We cuddled and talked about you. I had to get in the shower, because mommy had to go to work! When I was getting ready, we were chatting excitedly, and when I looked over, there were tears in your daddy's eyes. I held him as we cried. We can't wait to meet you. You are loved, you are wanted, and you are safe. Come quickly my little flea.
Today I think you are about 4 weeks if I'm calculating right. Some say you are about the size of a poppy seed. I say you are the size of a tiny flea. You, like a flea, are happy, jumping, and... feeding off me, lol. But unlike a flea, I do not want to get rid of you, and I never will. You are a gift, a miracle. You're our miracle. Some day I will tell you this story, and I can't wait to see the look on your face when you realize how much you are loved. I talked to you this morning and cried, because you are special, because you are mine.
We love you.
Mommy and Daddy
