It's your 1st birthday!
Dear Baby Zac
Today is finally your first birthday. I honestly still can't believe that this is happening. You were just a dream and now I'm experiencing the real dream I thought I wouldn't have. Every night I always stare at you so proud and so thankful because we have you. You know that you're actually my Christmas and birthday gift? Yes you are! I can't believe it either but yes you are!
Before I turned 30 I prayed for my last chance to get pregnant. Sabi ko kay God sana pam-birthday or Christmas gift niya sa akin and I promised that if it didn't happen I wouldn't ask anymore. When my 30th birthday came and I didn't get pregnant I got sad but I accepted that maybe God had a better plan for me.
Then on December 26, 2016 I found out I was pregnant with a due date of August (2017). I said "Wow christmas gift pala" but then my pregnancy didn't go so smooth.
I was already experiencing braxton hicks at 5 months and it progressed until I got hospitalized in July of 2017. You were only 32 weeks and I wasn't ready to give birth to you. I was scared thinking that God might have answered another one of my unconscious thoughts since I told your Dad I wished you were made a month earlier. I wished your due date was in July instead of August. I told him it would have been nice since my birthday is in July and that I would have been able to celebrate my birthday the same month I celebrated yours (our marriage anniversary is on your Dad's birthday). But that was just a thought. We were happy to have you regardless of the month I'd give birth and felt so blessed to be expecting you in August, but God had a wonderful twist and it was still possible for him.
I entered labor over a month early, celebrated my birthday in the hospital and then received a priceless birthday gift five days later.. and that is you baby Zac. You are my christmas and birthday gift ♥️. We love you so much baby Zac and we're so happy and thankful you're healthy and safe.
Enjoy your first birthday.
