I’m So Glad We Knew About You
For a brief moment, we were a family of four. It was a fleeting secret, one that lived mostly in our imaginations. But it wasn’t just in our heads. That second faint line on the test—it was real. The doctor recognized it, and I saw you too—just a whisper of a presence. Yet, you were there, a flicker of hope.
Those few days were truly special, right? The planning, the dreaming, and the cautious celebrations. We understood it was too soon to fully embrace you, aware that the fragile line indicating your existence could vanish at any moment. But oh, the hopes that surged forward! How could we resist?
The final weekend of summer marked our only time together. Your sibling was blissfully unaware. I felt you both—my heart was dancing as a mother of two! One child holding my hand, the other nestled in my heart, while you remained an exciting mystery.
And then, just like that, you were gone.
That last weekend of summer, our sole weekend with you, was spent at Story Land. I cherish that memory. In those early moments, aren’t we all just part of the stories our parents tell themselves?
In another era, we might never have known about your existence. No early tests, no emotional rollercoaster.
But I’m grateful we did.
That last weekend of summer—our only weekend together—was simply perfect. If you want to dive deeper into topics like this, check out this post on home insemination.
