20 weeks +

Baby, we are at the halfway mark. Well done, sweetheart!

Keep it up. Daddy and mummy are proud of you.

We are so blessed. And excited.

I pray that I would be a good mother. I am not perfect. No, I am far from perfect - but may God's grace surpass my shortcomings so that our child would yet have a truly blessed childhood. A childhood of the happiest, most delightful memories. A childhood during which unconditional love would sweeten all growing-up pains, falls and spankings reserved for naughtiness. A childhood of knowing God as the One who is absolutely worthy of awe and praise. A childhood of mummy's magical kisses (daddy's too), hugs and affirming words.

Putting aside my prior plans and ambitions (unrelated to motherhood) has been challenging and not without tears - but I am comforted to know that it will be worth it all. 

God, thank You.
