I woke up this morning with a text message from a beloved friend of mine saying that her baby (yes, we are talking about a princess, not a prince...) had been born the night before.
After reading her message, I was jumping for joy and I tried to imagine her happiness too. If I was so excited about the news, she would be walking on air!!!
I had two instant sensations: I felt like a mother for a fraction of seconds. And it felt sublime, noble... Then, I clicked I am not one (at least not yet), and that made me want a baby right away! hehe Funny, funny thing when you receive this kind of announcement when you are partially awake, partially asleep. :oP
As she is one of my best friends (a sister to me!), I followed her pregnancy closely. Every nausea, the scans she had, her doctor´s appointments, her wish to have a normal delivery instead of a Caesarian, her belly just getting bigger and bigger as time went by, her tiredness when we were near the delivery date...
And here I am with so many thoughts in mind. Trying to figure out what this whole thing is... It is probably something similar to being born again. Restarting your life. Or seeing your life being changed forever. Or none of the above.
I reckon I would have to face the situation myself to understand it better. What I know and can assure: it is definitely something special. I remember clearly the bliss (=the state of complete happiness) all over me when I read her lines.
Welcome to life, princess! :oD
Dear Bia, to be a mother is a great experience!! How you wrote, I am walking on air!!! Your message is beautiful and shows the feelings that we have in this special moment .... Kisses Love you !
ReplyDeleteMy darling Livita,
ReplyDeleteI can see all that in your eyes when you look at her or when you hold her in your arms. :o)
I believe that it must be sth similar to meeting a true friend in life... Meeting a TRUE friend is meaningful too. Special. I´ll never forget the day I met you.
Enjoy the journey, mommy!
All my love,
Your ´sis´ Bia :ox
Hi Biazinha, I finally had a chance to check out your BEAUTIFUL BLOG! hahahaha and as you recommended, I went straight to the Pregnancy post.Good one! Hope you have a baby soon, and our kids can become friends...
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying my pregnancy heaps, but I'm sure when the baby arrives, a Mother and a Father will born at the same time...
Ti Amo Maluquinha! xxooxxoo Kell
My beloved "Kellosa",
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful message! I read it some hours ago and I was just dying to get home in order to answer it! It was such a delightful surprise to read your lines!
I miss you badly, Kell, I t-r-u-l-y do! I miss our chats in the middle of the night, the laughter, the fun we had together, your food (yummy!), your caring, advice, the parties, our "Kahlua & milk", your patience to wait for me (I would forever to get dressed, wouldn´t I?)!!! Ahhhhhh... I miss a whole bunch of things, my darling friend...
I entirely agree: I must have a baby soon so that Julian and my son/daughter can play together (as much as we did!) hehe
"Ti amo" too! (as we always say it this way!)
Your Biazinha maluca :o)
