three heartbeats

phone in hand
rush of words and laughter  
catching up 
feels like no time has passed
since last we spoke

dear son
calls to say
my life now 
has another heartbeat 
my love has two
hers and our son
three heartbeats 
are now one 
family





Your Dad called to share the wonderful news that you are living inside your Mom.They have found out you are a boy. You are well loved long before we've set eyes on you! Can't wait to hold you in my arms! 
Dear Grandson, I love you!

We went to see your great grandma today. She had a big smile upon her face when she heard about you! You already make us all happy. Tomorrow I will go see your great aunt to tell her the news of you. She will be very happy too. When you come to visit, you'll enjoy seeing her. She's a woman of many cats and two dogs. I'm going to pray for you, your mom and dad and then go to sleep. Love you, my sweet prince!
