Back in July we were looking forward to this day – hoping we
would be meeting our babE sometime soon, and wondering if he or she would share
their birthday with my sister who’s also a March baby. In November we were
praying to make it to March 1st, to make it to 36 weeks, to be able
to deliver in Guelph as we originally planned rather than at another hospital.
Today we’re holding our little boy, and celebrating that he’s almost 2 months
old. In July, March seemed so far away, and today it feels like it came way too
soon.

I’m so thankful that we’ve gotten an extra 8 weeks with
Gray, but at the same time I wonder what would have happened if he had decided
to keep cooking a while longer. Would he have been the 12lbs they anticipated?
Would he have had even more hair – as if that was possible! Where would he have
fit! Would he have less struggles with eating and digesting, or would he still
have had issues?
March 24th will one day become just another day
in the year, but I think for a few years I will always remember it as Gray’s
due date. A day when it’s okay to be a little nostalgic.
