I would like to write about it so that I keep these memories forever. :-)
We were already on our 5th day of Simbang Gabi already at that time and my prayer is that God grants us a baby in His own time... and yes, everything was on HIS own time.
I just have to share this... I had this wild thought and dream in my head, that I will wake Glenn up on his birthday with a positive result on the pregnancy stick to surprise him. I really didn't think it would come true but God really made it happen.
The night before his birthday, Glenn had work and I had some time to walk around the mall and saw that there's Buy One Take One on pregnancy kits in Watson's. I knew that I will have my period in December so I wasn't expecting anything. I just wanted to stock up on it also knowing that we are going to try harder to get pregnant in 2014, I hoarded and bought 8. :-)
So on December 20 night time, while Glenn was at work and I didn't have anything to do, I tried one of the Pregnancy Tests. I placed too much liquid so I threw it away. I thought I'll just try again the next day. I have lots of them anyway! :-)
And then it happened, I woke up on his birthday morning and thought I'd give it another try. This time, I saw two lines... I can't believe it and I didn't want to believe it. I woke Glenn up and asked him to look at the stick... of course, he had to look for his glasses. haha! He couldn't believe it either. At this point, I remembered that I threw a pee stick the night before... I rummaged thru the trash and found it.... YUP! there were two lines there. We really could not believe it.... not until we called our Doctor who confirmed that we are pregnant but we need to have a check up to be absolutely sure.
I guess, God has never ceases to surprise us. He surprised us with our marriage and now, He surprised us with our little sunshine. Again, we believe... IN HIS TIME, not ours. :-)
.... And God and Mama Mary even made sure, I gave Glenn my "surprise" birthday gift. :)
