Atlehang, My Unborn Child

Atlehang ????My unborn child 

I always knew you where on your way 
You never came by surprise 
I never felt sad, depressed or unhappy because of your existence 
Yes days went lonely, night went lonely 
Because of life obstacles, not because of you 
You are the best thing that ever happened to me
You give me hope, faith and strength 
You show me there's more to life each and everyday 
Never in my life, have I never done something and not think "what is it that people will say"
I suffered a lot from "Batho batloreng disease"
But when you came along, I didn't care at all what people will say 
All that was running on my mind was ATLEHANG  ATLEHANG ATLEHANG 
All the sickness you brought, they went sickness but a way to learn how to love and care for someone I haven't seen, they taught me spiritual connection 
All the kicks you gave me they taught me how to handle you before you could even show me how you are
They taught me how to be strong than I am 
I wouldn't say you are not a blessing 
I wouldn't say you didn't change my life in an amazing way 
You showed me that God will never ever leave nor forsake me
You are my hero, my strength, my pillar, you are my life 
I can't wait to meet you 
Though I'm enjoying having you inside me 
Hearing you move, will be the best thing I'm going to remember when you are here 
And when you are old, and I can't take the pains you'll be feeling 
I'm happy I'm protecting, I'm making you warm and I'm loving you, now while you are inside me 
Atlehang ??? Mummy Loves You ??
