Feeling a baby move for the first time....

So this whole weekend, I have been here at a friend's house outside Louisville, KY.  I came for a final visit before she and her husband have their second baby and she also was my subject for some maternity shots.  She is such a great friend and honestly, it's hilarious how we all became friends.   So, you may or may not know that my husband, Aaron and I met on E-Harmony.  She met her husband on e-harmony also.  Two weird and funny coincidences happened with this.  MY husband and her were matches and vice versa, her husband and I were matches. It doesn't stop here.  Aaron and Jason served together at their duty stations at Keesler AFB in the Engineering and Installation Squadron, known as the 85th EIS.  Jason went on to honorably discharge from the Air Force and work in the civilian sector after he received his first Master's degree. We've all stayed in touch and I have photographed Annabelle, their first child.  Now, Amber is pregnant with their second baby and is due in mid-December.  So, anyway....Amber knows the struggles I've had with wanting to "experience" pregnancy all the way to the end and so tonight it was so touching because her little baby started moving a lot while we were sitting downstairs.  She grabbed my hand and I felt her baby moving inside of her.   God, it was the most amazing feeling to "feel" life inside of someone!  I pray that someday, even after Katie that we get that chance for us to be successful with a pregnancy or to perhaps be adoptive parents of a newborn through domestic adoption.  I would LOVE the opportunity to follow the mother through her pregnancy journey and make it "feel" real to us.  We also know that most people are telling us babies get so much more fun when they're toddlers because they play games and do more than eat, sleep and fill up diapers.   But if we could just have the chance to raise ONE baby from infancy....from the time he/she was born and adopt or I carry with an egg donor through IVF, that would be an answer to prayer.   I've definitely TRIED to learn over the past few years that anything worth having is worth waiting for and I also would NOT want ANYONE reading this to think that just because this is a desire of my heart, that I would love Katie any less. In fact, it's going to make me love her more because Aaron and I literally been to the other side of the world to fulfill our heart's desire and have a family. We just ask that you continue to pray with us through this amazing journey!!!
