Story time ๐
Christmas 2005, I was 7 months pregnant with our first baby.
I 'knew' right from the time of conception that I was having a daughter.
In fact, I had a dream of her when I was 3 weeks pregnant and it was so vivid and real that I knew I was pregnant. This dream is what prompted me to take a pregnancy test.
At this time, our local hospital didn't reveal to expectant parents, what s*x their baby was. You had to wait till you delivered!
Well, no one had to tell me what I was having.
I was having a daughter! I had a knowing she would be my only daughter and that I just had to name her Abigail.
I discovered many years later that there are multiple branches of my maternal lineage where there are Abigail and Amy's in the same family.
In fact I was named Amy after the special aunt of my paternal grandfather. And her mother was named Abigail. Totally unbeknownst to me.
All along my intuition was speaking to me and guiding me along.
Anyhow back to Christmas 2005...
I stopped into a drugstore for something after a long day at work.
On the way out, I felt like I was literally pulled to go to a certain part of the store to look at giftware.
Right in front of me, I saw this little bear with the name tag Abigail.
I knew it was a sign that I was correct and I would soon meet my daughter Abigail.
Every year I hang this on our tree and remember back to those days.
A frightened, about to be first time mom, who had a strong inner knowing that all would be okay and that I was divinely guided and supported through it all.
She was meant to be and written in the stars long before she arrived in my life.
Trust in the journey of your life. Oftentimes it's the most unexpected journeys that bring the biggest blessings ๐๐
