That’s right! Miracles do happen and I finally get to have a GIRL! I thought I would cry when I found out it was going to be another boy, but it turns out I was going to cry either way! And let me tell you, it has been a very surreal morning. The ultrasound tech kept saying “she” and “her” and I couldn’t help but feel like she was talking about someone else’s baby. I couldn’t even make my mouth form the words! They got stuck in my throat as I tried to say them! And then there was the shopping experience. I have purposefully always avoided the girls sections-so I wouldn’t covet something I might never get or feel sad. Today as I ventured into those territories hitherto unknown I felt like I was an outsider, a criminal, like the store clerk was going to come over and ask me what on earth I was doing in the GIRL’S section! I was prepared to show her my ultrasound pictures and prove that I am now a card carrying member of the girls clothes section!
I have waited for this day for so long and I am so very grateful that my prayers (and my boys prayers!) have been answered. What a happy day! I wonder when I’ll stop crying!
My favorite part: the little toy monster truck on the right side.
