Here I was, feeling all down and sorry for myself. Just got back from the 3 hour GTT (we'll have the results on Monday). Total sourpuss.
Then I felt it. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Real low, right behind my pubic bone, and very steady. How could a smile not spread over my face as I realized that I was noticing the baby's hiccups for the first time???
I have a feeling having children will have a tendency to do this to me. How can you help but smile when you sense your child near? Even when they are rotten -- and I am not so naive as to believe that this child won't of course try my patience from time to time -- they have a tendency to steal your heart, I think.
I heard something once......does your face light up when your child walks into the room? Mine still does.
