I can't get you out of my mind, and I'm wondering if you feel the same. I'm hoping that someday you will find that in our friendship burns a small flame. Maybe Im completely out of line. Maybe I'm way off base. But to use my imagination is not a crime, as long as I don't pursue the chase. I'm sure this attraction will pass and my thoughts will drift to another, but if you do feel this way too--make it known fast. I'd hate to keep thinking of you as a brother.

Lord, give me strength today. My soul has slowly been chipping away. Last night, you made my heart so light. Darkness left and all was bright. My burden has been lifted and all my troubles gone. I will no longer look back to all that I have done. Lord, give me strength today. Don't let satan lead me astray.

As this life grows inside of me, I am already aware of how much I love him unconditionally. A test of my patience has already begun. I don't think I can wait one day longer to hold my son. I've dreamt of his eyes, his dimples and grin, and now am just waiting for his birth to begin.
