I think I have Written so much about Myles and I cannot promise that am going to stop on this blog, so today morning I woke up, looked my boy smiling at me and I was filled with lots of joy.
" Honey, Myles is the best thing ever and a gift from God," I said to my husband and he asked me why I had said that out of the blue in the earliest hours of the day, I smiled and reminded him that when we discovered I was pregnant, we both hoped it would be a girl and for some reason we thought it was a girl, we looked for names and it was just an easy thing for us to do and come across the names. The baby grew on the inside and the bump became rounder and rounder so we decided to do a scan to discover the sex of the baby. We went to IMC, Jinja...proceeded to the scanning room and the radiographer was ready to receive us and he asked if we wanted to know the sex of the baby and as if under remote control, Andy and I replied in Unison, " that's why we are here."
ITS A BOY!" Farouk said with easy, little did he know that it's not the answer we expected. We looked at each other in shock and silence filled the room as emotions floated all over the place but we cried not... I remember I had assured my mid wife when she said to me jokingly that's a boy, I told her I prayed about it and we both prayed that we would have a girl first... And I started quoting scripture,... Ask and you shall receive... Blah blah blah so here I was at a loss of words and finally when I decided to break the silence I asked my husband, honey did you hear that,? I took a deep breath, pulled myself together and made peace with it before we left the room and actually praised Father for the gift of the womb is a gift from God and we are only custodians. Here we are five months down the road, Myles is the most amazing thing that ever happened to us... His smile is contagious, he screams and only joy fills the place, he is very calm and peaceful and we adore him... He is our everyday day crush if you know what I mean... He is radiant and fascinating, we enjoy his company at home and never get enough of him, did I mention that he is very very handsome( wink! Wink!) I don't even know what it feels like to be a mother of a girl but I am in love with being a mother to this boy, Myles never cries, I here people say babies cry and I have no idea what that means, not that he never cries but he is not a cry baby it feels so much easier nursing a boy and am grateful to God that he gives us what we need not necessarily what we want, I bless the Lord for his ways are not our ways and he really knows what's best for us at all times.
Just to encourage us that it's not what we desire badly that really brings happiness into our lives, sometimes it's the difference that makes us happier... Am happy with a baby boy and as long as God has given you what he knows is best... You life will change and you will be happier than how you thought you would be with what you desired. The blessing of God maketh rich and he adds no sorrow to it. It may not be a baby as it was the case for me, it may be a job or something else. The Lord is in control, allow him do what he does best which he does as Father
