Nothing more precious than a Child

There is nothing more precious then that of a relationship between a mother and her daughter.
A mother has a connection with her children that a father will not understand, and may not be able to fathom.  A mother has a connection from day one. From the day she finds out this incredible news that she is going to give birth. That she is going to bring life into this world.

But what people don't realise is that this connection changes that woman forever. That her mind set is no longer on herself or on her partner, but now in the set of being the beginning of a family. Being the reason they will grow not just as partners and love each other more but in the case of individuals. A baby being brought into this world is a huge step and a gigantic change to their mind sets and emotional levels as people. You can not be a child to raise a child. You need to know that, that little individual is depending on you to keep him or her healthy, to feed them on time, to know what each and every little cry means. They cant turn around and say they need this or that. They look at us with those beautiful eyes waiting for us to read their thoughts. To just know.

I had that chance. I found out that I was going to bring in a beautiful little bundle of joy into this world. That I was going to give my fiance the one thing more to prove to him I will always be there, I will love him till death do us part. That was the only gift I could give him that NO ONE else could. and to tell you what, my head was spinning with joy. When I had my test done, there was no waiting period, just as quick as 1... 2... 3... And I was a mom. And he was a dad.

Such a small little object can bring such an immaculate change in peoples lives.

I will never forget the day I found out, the day I had to brake the news to him and the day we broke the news to the family...
I was not feeling well for a few days and it was all unusual symptoms. But also not the usual googled symptoms of pregnancy either. I didn't expect to be pregnant because I was on the injection, and normally it is a very very low rate to fall pregnant, and some say it could be impossible, unless you were sleeping together while on anti-biotics... in my case I was not. However God works in mysterious ways. I went to the clinic to see what could be the problem. The sister was the one who did my injections and she knew of the possibilities yet she still said we should do one to rule it out. So I did, being so positive that it will be negative I was on another planet thinking what could be wrong...
in thought what brought me back was a casual "Your pregnant". That was not even enough time for the strips to appear, but there they were, two small pink strips...
I did my things that needed to be done in town, and got home a good few hours after the news was given to me. sitting in the car looking at the test did it only fit me 100%. I was to become a mother.
My fiance had worked night shift the night before and was more than likely still asleep when I got home... walking into the room he was just waking up. I sat next to him on the bed, I still remember the words I used "Are you awake?" I asked him. "Ja..." was his reply. Very casual but still half asleep. "NO! Are you awake?" I asked again "I need to tell you something, I'm Pregnant." I timed hid silence it was a cold 3minutes I have ever had. "Now I'm awake" was all he could say.
He wanted to see the test to be sure and I showed him. "OK, first coffee then we will talk."
We didn't even get to the coffee, walking into the lounge his parents were sitting there and before we could say anything his father asked us when are we going to get married. I didn't want to say anything, but my backing out the lounge gave it away. It told them straight out that something was up. We told them, the one we were most afraid of disappointing was his father, but he jumped up immediately and congratulated us. His mom asked all the questions, What about the injection. What about protection... once that was off her chest, she hugged me and we both started to cry.

So I say for you again, there is nothing more Precious than being able to bring a child into this world!
