enough love?
By karakaejames. Posted in Cute Little Parasite in my Belly, Family | No Comments »Our parents always told us that when we had kids of our own we’d understand why they love us so much and why they do the things they do for us.
Hey mom & dad…I’m starting to get it.
After marrying who I believe to be the greatest man on the planet, I wasn’t sure I’d have enough love inside of me to love anything else.
It’s amazing how God creates babies, and grows our love for them over time. I’ve never seen her little face. I’ve never held her hand, or touched her. I am patiently (some days not-so-patiently) waiting until the day I get to see her face to face!
How much is that like our relationship with God? We haven’t seen him, or touched him. Yet we talk to him everyday and look so forward to the day we see his face.
As much as I’m not a fan of pregnancy…I’m a fan of this love. I am growing more in love with my baby girl everyday, and more in love with a perfect God who created her and is shaping her everyday inside of me.
Wow. I guess I do have enough love.

As a father of two wonderful daughters, they never seem to stop amazing you. One is 19 and the other almost 16 and I couldn’t have ask the Lord for two better children, yes there will be pain, sorrow and hurt, but that makes the love even more appreciated. I’m not trying to bring you down, I’m just saying, if everything was perfect, than perfect would become average, and we would lose the appreciation for that, which is great.
Love and appreciate every minute with your child, whether good or bad, because it goes by so quickly!

It’s pretty crazy to be able to love someone so small that we have never seen or heard or held before, but I’m sure glad we do!

I am so glad you are starting to get it. One of these days she may move many, many miles away, and you will get my missing you so much, esp. at this phase in your life.
You definitely have enough love, and you will make a great mom.
