An angel created

It was only about a month or so that we were living together, but somehow I felt true love. I had those butterflies in my tummy- the ones people talk about... But they seemed to be to present, so real and so constant. Days were unraveling and we were getting to know each other with bits of excitement and fears that only love can create. I was carrying on with life looking for work and exploring a new city- or better, a new state. I was loving California too!! One Wednesday morning, right after breakfast I ran to the bathroom, green and quite sick. I thought I had caught a stomach flu from a couple of friends whom I was in contact days before and were really sick. I carried on with my day as nothing had happened and felt fine. The next morning, again. Ran to the bathroom... As I laid in bed I told Heath something wasn't right. "I fell nauseous!!!" As soon as I said that it hit me- I am pregnant! I just knew it.. My body felt different... I ran to The Dollar Store, thinking if the results were negative then at least it wasn't a money waste. The minute I peed on that stick... BOOM- positive!!! In disbelieve, I picked up Jack, Heath's chiwawa, who I immediately became step-mother to and took him to the pharmacy with me. Jack was my moral support and through the entire walk there we chatted(well, I talked to him non stop on how scared I was...). I bought a box with 2 pregnancy tests for $20 and in that moment I kind of wish it was positive just from spending all that- hehe. We walked home and I took both tests right away... Yeap- definitely pregnant!! I walked back and forth through the living room, cussing a bit.. crying a bit... That night I shared with Heath what was happening. He was in disbelief and at that moment I truly thought I would've had to embark in this journey alone. The next day, after digesting a little the idea of having a baby, he called me down to the beach and told me we were in this together. We both always dreamt of having children and we knew that even though was a little soon to go through something so major, we were going to be wonderful parents. I personally have dreamt of being a "mommy" for as long as I can remember. =) So this is how this whole baby journey started... With anxiety, fears, tons of joy and happiness... and knowing there were going to be challenges as we were going to have to learn to deal with along the way- since life is uncertain and we were about to bring another life into this world!!!
