<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">I wrote this note the morning of my induction (02/09/2018) with my second child: a note to my first born.</h3>

<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">A note to my first born as I lay awake awaiting and thinking about how our worlds would soon forever change. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">As I lay here wide awake waiting for the clock to strike 6am so I can get up and prepare for the journey that is childbirth and welcoming your sister into this crazy world, I can’t help but feel guilt. </p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">Guilt for leaving you alone all day and possibly all night (even though you love your Grammie time). </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">Guilt, knowing that our time just the two of us is coming to an abrupt end. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">Guilt, knowing that you will now have to share my time &; attention. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">Guilt, knowing that you are only two and don’t quite yet understand the joy that will come from a sibling, so you are lashing out with tantrums knowing something big is coming but not knowing what.</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">I understand my sweet girl, I know that it’s hard. I feel it too. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">I know that today will be life changing for all of us. New routines, new schedules, a whole new way of life for us. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">And I’m sorry. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">I’m sorry for the lack of attention you’ve gotten since mama can’t get down on all fours and play horsey. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">I’m sorry for the times you begged and cried wanting me to get down and sit on the floor next to you but my big growing belly prevented that. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">I’m sorry I haven’t been the most patient person and I’m sorry for those times my hormones got the best of me and you saw mama break down in tears from frustration or just plain raw emotion.</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">But here’s the amazing thing my little princess, you now will forever have a playmate.</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">You will forever have someone to get down and play on the floor with you, someone to share you’re hopes and dreams with. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">Someone to fight with and just argue like siblings know how to do best. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">Having a sibling is one of life’s most amazing gifts my sweet girl, even if sometimes it may not seem like it. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph">So here is my gift to you darling, <em>a forever friend.</em></p>
