Nearly half way

I'm almost 19 weeks pregnant now and looking forward to our next scan. Roo is a very active baby always kicking and responds well to daddys voice. I think we have a daddys girl on our hands! Although I sometimes struggle with being pregnant again I feel so blessed to have Roo. She reminds me that although filled with darkness there is also light in the world. I feel confident that Roo is our forever baby, the one we get to watch grow up, teach how to bake cakes and how to tie her laces.

I always find it strange when I think of children, a little blank canvas to make into a person. A person who will go out in the world and be someone, someone special. I want our children to love, if nothing else just to love and to be loved and above all be happy. We have saw the greatest of tragedies but we have known the greatest of loves. To have two children one to arrive soon the other has been and gone. Both of which we hold dearly in our hearts with an overwhelming love, a love I've never felt before.
