Elijah already knows that Rob and I are married. He's looked at the pictures and asked where he was. The other night before bed he asked me, "Mommy, when are you and daddy going to get married again?" I said, "We already are married, honey." He replied, "I know you already got married for me, but when are you going to get married for this baby?!" Doesn't that sound like a fun idea? A party - renewal of vows, maybe, before another family member debuts. Elijah could be a part of this one and take the vows of family with us. Granted, with all that you have to do to get ready for a baby, it might become a little of a stress, but it's a fun idea to kick around.
We are two weeks from my due date of October 18. Everything is pretty much set; I guess we're just waiting now. Elijah is mostly excited about being a big brother, although he has his moments where he says he'd like to be the baby again. Wouldn't we all just for a bit?! We remind him that babies can't play with toys or eat pizza or drink chocolate milk....and sometimes that helps...sometimes it doesn't.
God of miracles, be with us as this miracle comes to live with us. Help us to raise him/her to love you most. Amen.
