Very Special People In My Life

Hi everyone!  I hope everyone is doing well.  Today I need to express my thanks to some very important people in  my life that has helped me through these eleven months.

First, would be God.  If I didn't believe, I would not be able to handle and get through this.  I admit before I was pregnant, and for half of my pregnancy, I didn't pray and I was straying away.  But then it hit me, I need him.  And from that day, I started to pray and talk to him about the hard decision I had to make.  After giving birth, was the most I have ever needed him.  It was so hard and I was so upset, but he still was with me and led me the way.  I have been going to church on Thursdays, and been reading the bible, and making Abigail her God "journal".  It is made up of my favorite bible verses, quotes and poems, that when she gets older, will help her get through the days.  I have also wrote little notes and such to her pertaining to the verses or just something that came into my head.  Praise the Lord!!

Next, would be my mom.  I was so scared to tell her about being pregnant, I thought she would shun me.  She was shocked, but after words she was there no matter what.  It has been such a wonderful months, spending lots of time with her, talking about pregnancy things, going to doctor appointments, Lamaze, and even was in the operating room with me while having Abigail.  I am so glad that she was there for me.  Now she is probably getting sick of me, Lol!  After getting out of the hospital, I have called her multiple times a day, crying, paranoid, and just needing to talk.

Next, would be my dad.  I know it has been very hard for him, since telling him I was pregnant.  He doesn't show it.  He has helped me through this, in the dad way.  It has been so nice.  He loves that little "Gracie".

Next, would be Auntie Tabby.  She was the first one to find out I was pregnant at 4 o'clock in the morning.  She rushed over to the house.  She was the "dad" for a few months, going to doctor appointments, and witnessing Abigail Grace on the ultrasound for the first time.  She is my best friend, I am so glad I have her.  She was staying at my house, taking care of the cats, while I was in the hospital.  After I got out of the hospital, I was very down, I feel bad for not talking to her alot, I didn't  talk to a lot of people, I slept and cried.  But she understands and I love her for that! Love ya Sis!

Next, would be Nana and Papa Bob.  Nana wrote me a letter and included some pages from the our daily bread devotional, after they found out I was pregnant.  They have been there for me no matter what.  After getting out of the hospital, I go to there house on Thursday to visit, play sequence, and go to church.

Next, would be Kelly from Bethany.  She has been an angel through this whole process.  She has helped me in so many ways.  Her caring, loving,guiding,  and faithful ways have helped me so much.  I am so glad that I have her in my life. She is part of the family, sorta of like a second mom.  She is going to be in my life for the rest of it.

And lastly, would be Abigail's new mom and dad.  Ever since I picked them out from the other profiles, I knew they were the one. They are so caring and wonderful,  I feel so comfortable with them.  They are like family to me and my family.  They have done above and beyond of what they have to do, and I love that!!  They are such good parents to Abigail, I am relieved.  I am so glad God chose for me them for Abigail..  I am so excited about building our relationship with them.

I hope everyone has a great week!  God bless

Jessica
