Valentine's Day 2013 will be the first of many wonderful Valentine's Day... not because I am "finally in a relationship" as many reformed anti-Valentine's Day-ers might say. No, I have had 2 wonderful years with my husband...
Last year on the 14th of February he took me out to Olive Garden for dinner. We went out because I hadn't eaten in hours, as we had spent 6 in the ER passing tissue from the loss of our first pregnancy, a baby we named Miracle Celeste. I thought I would forever hate the day.
This year, the one year mark of losing my baby, Valentine's Day is sneaking up on us. I look forward to it with such anticipation. I'd rather it not happen, so that 14 Febraury can be Miracle's day in our family, but potentially Valentine's day could be our NEW little mister's birthday.
Hopefully (and most likely, as I have gestational Diabetes they will most likely induce me as soon as they deem "safe" if he doesn't come soon) he will make his appearance before then. Which means this Valentine's Day I will have rollie-pollie cheeks to kiss, a pudgy belly-button to raspberry, and smiles and giggles from the second most important man in my life.
Abraham may have to fight his son for my affection and kisses this year.
I bet Theo wins.
