We're living on a prayer, sweet boy. A prayer that brings you, our miracle, here. This week, you're the size of a banana, my little Chiquito, a bright yellow promise for this future. We finally got to see you again! You're sucking your thumb, yawning, and kicking. And, before we know it, you'll be doing all of these things earthside! Halfway is beyond exciting: The months between now and two different thens: A then where we wished for you, with such full and devastated hearts that we didn't know if the weeks that were to follow would bring us a joy beyond words or if we would never see the sunlight again. And a then where your cries are heard around the world. Where your body rests on my body; both of us, finally, whole. Here. Seeing you this week was beyond any miracle I could have every imagined: Hearing your heartbeat (151 BMP), counting ten fingers and toes, your perfect spine, your sweet little nose, catching you sleeping with one hand behind your head (just like your daddy) watching you dance around once you woke up. Oh, we love you so much already, kiddo. 2o weeks to go!
