For Keepsakes

you must of have been a beautiful baby for when I first became pregnate I didn't want any children with a tiny frame and underweight body I was content with own self just being me and now the biggest choice had to be dealt with thru each doctor visit of getting stuck with needles drinking ungodly fluids to radiate my body and to be poked and probed by doctors I didn't know not to mention having swollen feet severe heartburn everyday hemroids and the throwing up for four months did I really want to put myself thru this all to be a new mother I knew when I first saw the ultra sound images there was no other choice but to keep battling the odds that were stacked against me as I talked to you each day in my womb I kept letting you know that mama would keep you safe from any storm and there shall never be any doubt of me not wanting you so my little darling you must have been a beautiful baby for today I am watching you turn into a beautiful young woman with a beautiful heart like your mama Entry For Deborah Guzzi's You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby

How sweet the way you talked to your child in the womb. Surely it was worth the struggle with your health to have "such a beautiful baby." Very nice, Katherine! Love, Carolyn
