Our Little Miracle




Feeling a bit overwhelmed about being pregnant today - in a good way! This little soul is the same size (11 weeks) as our growing baby!

I fathered three children. My wife did the heavy lifting, obviously -- but what a magnificent experience each child was.

I was in the delivery room and witnessed each life enter the world. The essence of joy just exploded in my soul each time, and tears rolled down my cheeks, as I gazed into the exhausted eyes of my wife.

You have an amazing event just ahead. Embrace every minute of the entire journey.

--and so it goes--

Thanks, Rob.

Beautifully put!

This will be the second child each of us have had, but our first child together. There is nothing like the feeling that this time, I am having a baby with the love of my life. It had made everything about this pregnancy different from the very beginning, and I am enjoying every day of this adventure - I loved your sentiment, exactly how it feels.

Thank you!!

Great picture. To be honest, I miss getting pregnant again. But, two kids are more than enough to make me stay up late to clean up things.

Yeah, you can call me clean goddes or what.

Naeva - I know what you mean. I have craved the sense of being pregnant as much as having a baby at the end of it. Once was just not enough! This time I am loving it, as I feel much healthier and happier.

Can you ever be a clean goddess with two kids? One and a stepdaughter for the weekends/holidays is tough enough!!
