Our getaway....

Ivon and I have decided to head down to the states in the middle of march to do some last minute baby shopping. The baby stuff is reasonably cheaper, and we wanted one last chance to go away before we become a family of four. Exciting right??!! In a sense no. Why?!! God has answered my prayer. In a previous post i had spoken about how mine and rylens bond didn't come naturally, it had to grow. When i became pregnant, we had already decided i would take advantage of the 15 weeks of sick leave before i went on maternity leave. So, that we did. I have worked full time since Rylen was 6 months old and i have never really been a stay-at-home Mom. This has been one of my biggest hearts desires, to form a bond with my child and raise them on my own. These last two months with Rylen have been amazing. Some days, even weeks, have been really rough but for the most part we have had such a great time together. More and more he started to get really attached, running to me instead of Ivon, crying when i left, etc. I didn't realize how much we had bonded until we started planning to go away, who would take care of him, etc. We knew we wanted to go alone, so we needed to arrange child care. I started to panic..."i cant leave him.."...."what if something happens..." etc. Ivon pointed out that something had changed. Its such a beautiful thing to watch God intervene and create a bond between Rylen and I. So now, as we take our little getaway i am praying for peace that everything will be OK...
