Speaking To My Heart
You probably don't know this but Tarzan is my favorite Disney movie. Don't get me wrong ~ The Little Mermaid will always be my favorite princess movie. And even more so now that I have Georgia and it's hers too! But Tarzan will always speak to my heart.
For a long time I was a single mother to my son Christian. 8 years of his life we were on our own and having a great time. Tarzan is a story about a mom and her son. The love a mother has for her son (even if he didn't come from her womb) and the love a son has for his mother. I remember taking Christian to the movies to see it and listening to the words of the songs and how every second of that movie really spoke to me.
Fast forward years later and because of my daughter, Georgia, we are constantly listening to Disney songs on Pandora and wouldn't you know it Tarzan songs come on. Pregnant or not these songs always make me cry. Not with sadness but tears of joy. Again, they just speak to me in a way other songs haven't. As I've listened to one of the songs it has become even more meaningful. Here are some of the words:
For one so small you seem so strong
My arms will hold you keep you safe and warm
This bond between us can't be broken
I will be here don't you cry
Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
When destiny calls you, you must be strong
I may not be with you but you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
We'll show them together
Cause you'll be in my heart
{I can't even type it because I'm blubbering like a baby}
One thing I keep saying is he is so strong. He kicks like no other baby that has been in my belly. I hope that's a sign of his spirit when he enters this world. I need him to be strong but I will do my part to keep him as safe as possible.
Obviously the part about not being with you but you've got to hang on is where I lose it. I think our biggest fear is that when we leave for the night or even to grab a quick bite to eat is when something will happen. I pray his fighting spirit keeps him with us for a very very long time.

I am a regular everyday wife to Jason and mom to Christian and Georgia on a roller coaster ride. We are overjoyed to be welcoming a 3rd baby into our life. We feel blessed to be given such a special spirit in this 3rd baby. This is our journey to mend our baby's broken heart.
