Tonight

Sep 13, 2009

So, tonight I put my two year old son to sleep, but before I left his room I realized that this was going to be the last night before surgery that I would be watching him climb into his little toddler bed and snuggling up with his blankie. So before I kissed him goodnight I got down on my hands and knees and sat next to his bed and I prayed. The last time I remember praying in his room was two years ago in June before he came to us. I asked God to fill the empty crib that we had in the corner of the decorated room at the time. My Husband and I were waiting for a baby to come into our family. We had waited so long and for so many years. Little did I know at that time that I would be only waiting less than one more month when we got the call for our baby boy who had been miraculously born on the very same day I prayed in his nursery. I remember that day because our home study was scheduled this day and I was waiting for our social worker to come over while I was praying in his room.

So, I prayed again tonight in that very same room only I prayed while watching my baby fall asleep. Tomorrow we leave for Indianapolis since my surgery is at 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday. We'll be staying at my parent's home in Avon, which is only 30 minutes from the hospital. I know I will be fine with my surgery, I feel good about it. I have faith. God wouldn't have given me Clayton, my special baby boy, if it didn't mean I was to be his Mommy for long. He is my every joy. I am thankful that Doctors are able to help people like me. I am ready to change my life and I am excited to know that I will have a better grasp on my health.

My family means so much to me. I just want to tell them that I love you all. Thank-you for supporting me.
