It finally happened!

On Friday 17 June 2011 at 15h30, I decided to throw caution to the wind and POAS (pee on a stick).
I was only expecting a Big Fat Negative and was about to throw that little stick in the dustbin when.....
that sneaky second line started to make its appearance.

So it is official we are pregnant! Expected Due Date 20 February 2012!

On Saturday I had to convince Stefan I was really pregnant and did a further 3 home pregnancy tests - all positive.

Bittersweet

Yesterday was Stiaan's Christening, Stiaan is Riaan (Stefan's brother) and Sonicke's firstborn.
He is a precious four month old with the most amazing blue eyes.

I was so happy to be at the Christening and sharing this beautiful boy with everyone there and celebrating that his parents prayers had been answered finally. At the same time I was so sad because I would so love a little one of our own.

Nobody told me how difficult it would be, and that I would become so emotional. I'm sitting in the church pew crying, not only because the blessing the minister is giving Stiaan is so beautiful but also because I find myself wishing it was me.

After the service we were asked to be Stiaan's godparents, how bittersweet.

Children are a blessing from God and we have been blessed to play a role in little Stiaan's life.
