Poem
Jayden Makieh Kelly My child, it all started on the date of 2004 July 5th, I had received the news that I was going to be a proud parent of a beautiful gift. After weeks and weeks of feeling nauseated, tired, and just really sick, I had made an appointment that day to see a doctor, by the name of Anita Schmidt. She was very sweet, understanding, informative, and kind. I described my symptoms to her, but didn't for fact, have pregnancy in mind. However, I wasn't in denial and the possibility of that wasn't afar, and within minutes of us talking, my results came back and she said, "darling you are!" My stomach turned with happiness and fear, that was the most shocking news of the day, and with my eyes all big and with a little stammering my response was, "oh oh ok" Next, we headed to the examination room. I stared at the ceiling rubbed my stomach, talked to myself and made plans for you. Through the ultrasound I saw a little spot, with a thumping heartbeat, that was you!! It was determined that I was eight weeks and on February 14, 2005 is when you would be due! After the exam I went to my purse and got out my cell, I started to call my mom, the news, I couldn't wait to tell! However, I hung it back up and decided to have patience, but temptation was great and the news couldn't take waiting! I called your dad to share the joy and asked him if he wanted a girl or a boy. He stuttered, "boy" with fear in his voice, and probably wondered, "why is she asking me about such a choice?" After I talked to him, I called your aunt Tisha, and asked her if she wanted a niece or a nephew, she thought that me telling her I was pregnant was extremely untrue! She asked me to swear on my nephew and to speak to the doctor, the doctor asked for my consent and then confirmed what I had already told her. Really shocked from the news as it was told, my sister screamed in the doctor's ear, "Oh NO NO NO!" While walking to my mom's vehicle with the ultrasound and pictures in my hand, I was a little nervous of telling her, but waiting I could not stand. I gave her the ultrasound and her main concern was how I was going to finish college. I assured her that you were now my main reason for furthering my knowledge. Wow, I’m going to be a mom is all I kept thinking. I called many friends and family and they thought the news I was faking. After realizing that this was all true, everyone fell in love with the thought of you.
