The Day I Knew It Was Baby's Kick

Dear Classic Mom Diary:

The date is April 29, 2015. The time was about 3:30 PM. I had been holding it fresh in my mind that I was all but positive that was some movement I felt last night, but I didn't know for certain. The dogs upstairs started barking, so I ran to the door assuming it was a knock, but no one was there. Irritated, I hollered at them to stop, then went back to my living room. It was literally just crossing my mind: were they kicks? Were they movement? Were they gas? What in the heck was it?! I wanted it to be the kicks. I wanted to be able to say "I've felt it! I've definitely, for sure, totally felt my baby move! It's not just a thought anymore, or a maybe, but I know 100%!" 

I sat down on the couch and scratched my kitties head a bit, and then leaned forward a bit to get comfortable at the computer. I started playing spider solitare and bang there it was. Undeniable, the most forceful one yet. And to top it, as I wrote that sentence "undeniable" I felt another one. Undeniable. Incredible. Breathtaking. My heart is melting with love, happiness, and meltiness. I have no words to describe the emotion in my heart right now. Amazing.

This is a day I will never forget.

Love
