The Heartbeat

The heartbeat inside me made me realize you were more accurate than anything else.

You had no name, but I knew you were real because your heartbeat was right underneath mine.

 If I could be honest, I was freaked out but also excited. I could not wait any longer to meet you and see who you would take after your dad or me.

As this unknown person keeps taking over my body, I can’t help but think about why I was so lucky that this person chose me to be a mother and nurtured them with all the love in my heart.

Many people wait for years or never get the opportunity to feel another human life coming out of their bodies.

The fact that God has blessed me with an opportunity to have someone who looks like me is something I will be grateful for.
