being positive

There are things that pregnancy does to you. Things you can't change. So you try to be positive about. One of those things would be....

Stretch marks.

Found this little writing and it gives a positive spin. A much needed positive spin...

A mark for every breath you took, every blink, every sleepy yawn. One for every time you sucked your thumb, waved hello, closed your eyes and slept in the most perfect darkness. One for every time you had the hiccups. One for every dream you dreamed within me.It isn't very pretty anymore. Some may even think it ugly. That's OK. It was your home. It's where I first grew to love you, where I lay my hand as I dreamed about who you were and who you would be. It held you until my arms could, and for that, I will always find something beautiful in it

So sweet. Made me cry. I'm so excited to meet this little one that's given me more stretch marks than I thought a person could possibly have. :)
