June 19th

I have waited 365 days for June 19th to come back around...nervous and anxious about how I would feel. June 19th will always hold a special place in my heart. It was on June 19, 2012 that James and I said goodbye to our 1st baby. It was the hardest day of my life and June 19, 2013 proved to be a very difficult day as well. I kept myself busy by cleaning and grocery shopping. God also knew it was going to be a hard day, so he blessed us with a special afternoon. See, fast forward one year...365 days...James and I are 36 weeks pregnant with our 2nd baby! And on June 19, 2013 we were able to see our little one on ultrasound, growing bigger and stronger each day!! To see it's heart beating and hear it on the doppler was an overwhelming feeling. Baby Lyle will be here shortly and I cannot wait to snuggle him/her in my arms. James said it perfectly in an email to me yesterday..."this little one will be extra special as s/he lives his/her life for two".
