Mark my words.
I did tell Laura and Kevo, the day I found out I was pregnant months ago, about that feeling I had. That feeling, that very soon I would be meeting Maggie, Maggie Bell Jones, in case your were wondering.
Now... going into our appointment today, I was sure she was going to tell me that it was a boy, and all of your hard work in helping us find a name would be put to good use.
Life is full of surprises though, and as she slowly showed us every detail of our baby, the head, the hands, the heart, she said "are you interested in knowing the sex...what are your names?
"Maggie," I said "or Will..."
Then she stopped clicked a picture and said, "well, I think you'll be meeting Maggie"
My heart filled up as fast as my eyes...another girl.
Pink.
Bows.
Tea parties.
Sisters.
I could write and ramble about every detail of our very long appointment today, but I will just tell you that I am not worthy of this life HE has blessed us with...
But HE, our Father, has trusted me...
Me to be their mother and I am overwhelmed, I am humbled, I am not worthy.
I have been so disconnected from this pregnancy until today.
Even now, she flutters ever so gently, and I know that it is her, I can feel her, we are connected.
After today, I can tell you that my heart is full. Full of love for their father, full of love for her sister, and full of love for my Littlest..Maggie Bell
Grace and peace...my cup runneth over.
xoxo

Carly...I love this post!!! It made me tear up. I am so excited for you to have two little girls and experience all the fun & drama that only they can produce! :) I love Maggie's little profile..she has such a sweet face, and I am not sure why, but Libby looks all of a sudden so grown up, especially in the last pic. What a great birthday gift, My Sister...My Friend! Love to all of you. Please give Kev & Libs hugs from us. xoxo
So pleased everything went well yesterday and I know that I will love Maggie Bell Jones just as much as I love Libby - especially if there are more phots to look forward to of a little girl wearing a pink tutu with Wellie boots!
