MY PROFILE

Hi my name is Allie, I have two children and my fiancé and I are trying to conceive again.

OUR STORY

I have a son from a previous relationship. His name is Jake and he is 5yrs old. I was 19 when Jake was born and totally unprepared for motherhood. I loved being pregnant and the day he was born will always be one of the happiest days of my life, but that doesn’t mean it was easy. Don’t get me wrong I loved being a mum; it’s just that I felt I was walking blind and alone. Then three years ago everything changed, I met Travers, the love of my life, and after being together for only eight months he proposed to me. I was speechless and to this day I still can’t believe how lucky I am to have found such a special man. Travers has taken on my son and treated him as if he was his own and for this I will be forever grateful. Travers and I decided we were ready to have children together in 2008. I went off contraception, had one cycle then fell pregnant. We couldn’t believe how fast it all happened. All through the pregnancy we thought for sure we were having a boy and on the 27 of April 2009 I gave birth to our beautiful daughter, Ayla. It was such a surprise. Ayla is such a good baby and her big brother just adores her. We always knew we wanted two siblings for Jake, and for them to be close in age. We thought that when Ayla reached around six months it would be a good time to start trying. So here we are - two wonderful children and hopefully the third and final baby not too far away.

CAN'T WAIT TO BE YOUR MOMMY! © Cindy Hawkins

So I am sitting here thinking of the perfect words to say,
to tell you how I feel about the arrival of your birthday.
I am feeling a little nervous, with hopes I do everything right,
but I can’t wait to be your mommy, every waking day and every sleepy night.
I have so many plans and things for us to do,
so I sit here in anticipation just waiting to meet you.
You already mean the world to me and so, so much more,
I can’t wait to be your mommy, that's all I'm waiting for.
Mine and your bags are packed and waiting in the car,
because the day that you will be here, isn't very far.
So here I sit thinking of the perfect words to say,
but all that comes to mind is
I can't wait to be your mommy every single day!!!!

TODAY

Today I left some dishes dirty,
The bed I made at 3:30,
The nappies soaked a little longer,
The odour grew a little stronger,
The crumbs I spilt the day before,
Are staring at me from the floor.
The fingerprints there on the wall,
Will likely still be there next fall.
The dirty streaks on those window panes
will still be there next time it rains.
“Shame on you, old lazy bones” you say,
“And just what have you done today?”
I nursed a baby till he slept
I held a toddler whilst he wept
I played a game of hide and seek
I squeezed a toy so it would squeak
I pulled a wagon; sang a song,
Taught a child right from wrong.
What did I do this whole day through?
Not much that shows, I guess it’s true.
Unless you think that what I’ve done,
Might be important to someone,
with bright blue eyes and soft blond hair.
If that is true, I’ve done my share.
