Two Seperate Beds
You all may know that we had our Twins on September 5th 2008. It's been almost a month now and our little girls have always had two separate beds. Now, to many of you that may seem like nothing, but to two little girls who's life up until birth was shared with her sister that is everything. As grateful as I am to have my adorable little Mhairi at home with us, my heart breaks for Rhyanna who spends day in and day out with strangers and the constant beep of monitors.
Mhairi was the first "born" into this world. She was a healthy five pounds five oz. despite being born six weeks early. The first time I saw her she looked just like a porcelain doll, perfect. She is small in build and her skin is gorgeous. She has these large gorgeous eyes that are so crystal clear they seem to look right into your soul. Mhairi was blessed with an angels disposition and I have only heard her cry a handful of times.
Rhyanna is my angel. I believe that had we not proceeded with the Cesarean that our little girl wouldn't have made it. She had been weak in the days prier to the birth and it had been difficult to follow her heart rhythms. She worried me often and silently prayed she was well. It does not surprise me now that she is the one who remains behind fighting a bad case of acid reflex and struggling to eat. However, she is a strong girl with those same big eyes that seem to be for mom only.
I couldn't begin to tell you the plethora of emotions that wave through me each day on this new journey called motherhood. The lesson I feel I'm learn most is patience. Though I know in my heart the only battle I'm fighting is time and soon, soon enough, we will all be home and a family together.
