I watched her as she nervously and excitedly told me the pregnancy test results.
I watched and listened to her pray for this baby.
I watched as she glowed and lit up when we told people the good news.
I watched her struggle and fight for her life in the hospital back in December, going through all that pain and scare for our child.
I watched her get sick over the months, fatigued with pregnancy.
I watched and listened to her pray for this baby.
I watched her wrestle with her emotional changes.
I watched her in each doctor's appointment.
I watched her smile at every ultrasound.
I watched and listened to her pray for this baby.
I watched her standing in the nursery of our house, waiting for this baby.
I watched her endure weeks of back pain.
I watched her smile and talk with people, speaking kindly and masking the pain she was going through.
I listened to her tell me I was going to be a good daddy.
I watched and listened to her pray for this baby.
I heard her tell me to take us to the hospital.
I watched her eyes when they said a baby would be born.
I watched her get sick during labor.
I watched her go all natural with delivery.
I watched, helplessly watched, her breathe through pain and pray to God for His mercy.
I watched her push and push and push, no matter the pain.
I watched her hold Silas for the first time, smiling into his eyes.
I watched Silas and her, both trying to figure out the feeding thing.
I watched her love on this child.
I listen to her give God all the credit for this child.
I watch and listen to her pray for Silas.
If only you could have seen all this, and hear all this, and watch her each day. What a mother she is!!! These pictures don't scratch the service of the love between Kelly and Silas. I am a blessed and thankful husband, father, and son.
