🥭 19 weeks 🥭

 

Baby meissner has doubled in size in the last few weeks and I’m pretty sure my heart has too.

I had a little chat with one of my coworkers about this little babe and our journey to her this morning and it just hit me a bit different.

It’s not that I’ve ever forgotten what it took to get our baby, but the more time that passes, the more my heart heals. And while I’m thankful for the healing, I don’t want to forget any ounce of the journey. My coworkers thoughtful questions helped me walk through that pain again for a moment, and then continue into my favorite part of the story, our positive test, our little girl. And it’s continued to be on my mind all day and into todays mini photoshoot. That alone was enough to bring me to tears, but then one of my favorite worship songs came on while I held the little bump that I only ever dreamed of having.

“All my life You have been so, so good. With every breath that I am able I will sing of the goodness of God. You have led me through the fire in the darkest night. You are close like no other. I've known You as a Father. I've known You as a Friend and I have lived in the goodness of God.”

This rings just as true now with our little baby, as it did when we lived with the question of whether we would ever have one of our own. I’m so thankful for Gods goodness. So thankful that His plan is always greater than our dreams could ever be.

I just love this little girl so deeply. And while I can’t wait to jam out to bible songs with her earth side (I’ve downloaded over 100 this last week ), I will settle with our little music time we have together just her & I as connected as we will ever be.

We are almost halfway and I’m just as giddy as can be to see her again this week
