A Forever Love (Wanted #5)(57)

Dear Ellie,

I’ll never forget the day you told me we were expecting our first child. I can close my eyes and still feel the excitement I felt at that very moment. I think the months of trying so hard made it all the sweeter.

Watching your stomach grow with our child, Ells, I’ve never in my life experienced such emotions. Each morning, waking up next to the one person I loved more than life itself, knowing you would give me one of the most amazing gifts ever, filled my heart with so much love that it felt as if it would burst each day.

The first time I heard our baby’s heartbeat, I was certain nothing would ever top that moment. I was proved wrong when I placed my hand on your stomach and felt our child move.

Then, the day came when we welcomed Alex into this world. Seeing the smile spread across your face the first time you saw our daughter was probably one of the most amazing moments in our marriage. To be a part of something so miraculous and to share it with you…words will never be able to explain how I felt. I’ll never forget the sounds of her cries filling the air like the sweetest of love songs. I’ll never forget your tears of happiness when you held her. I’ve always known you would be an amazing mother, Ells, and to watch that exchange between the two most important girls in my life was truly a gift from above.

I thank God every day that I was with Jeff the day I first placed my eyes on the most beautiful woman ever. Thank you, Ellie, for letting me love you. Thank you for giving me the greatest gifts ever—our daughter and your love.

I love you more.

My sweet, beautiful Arianna,

I don’t even have the words to describe what I’ve been feeling the last nine months. I won’t lie and say that I haven’t been scared to death this whole time. I’ve prayed every morning and every night that God and our little angel would watch over you and keep you and the baby safe.

As I sit here and write this letter to you, I think back to the day you told me you were pregnant. The look in your eyes made me fall in love with you even more, if that were possible. I still remember what you were wearing, how you smelled, what your hair looked liked, and how your eyes danced with a light I hadn’t seen in so long. It felt like we had been given the greatest gift of all, and I knew no other moment in my life would top it.

Then, you placed my hand on your swollen stomach, and I felt our son move. I tremble now as I think back to that amazing day. My heart was overflowing with love for you. Thinking back to what we shared while you were pregnant, one word comes to mind—magical. I was lost in every single second of watching your body change and watching the glow on your face brighten day after day. Something so simple as picking out the outfit for the baby to wear when he came home seems like it was just a moment ago.

All those moments, I said to myself, Nothing will ever top this. How incredibly wrong I was. The moment our son was born will forever be the most incredible moment of my life.

Thank you, Ari, for loving me and for giving me one of the greatest blessings of my life—our son, Luke.

I love you, baby.

Dear Heather,

I had all these things I wanted to say to you in this letter, but as I sit here and watch you sleep, my heart is so filled with happiness that all I really want to do is pinch myself and pray that this isn’t all just a dream.

I know the road that we took to get to where we are was filled with so many ups and downs, but I believe that is what has made our love so strong. We had to fight for it from the very beginning. One of the many happy memories along that road was the day I found out you were pregnant. So many emotions played through that day, but that very moment in time, when I knew I was going to be a father, has to be one of the best times of my life.

It seems some of our best memories have been mixed with so many different emotions. The day I watched on the monitor and saw two little peanuts, I wasn’t sure if I should be happy or totally scared to death. I was so freaked-out, but at the same time, I was so blessed in knowing that you and I were not just bringing one blessing into our world but two.

Some of my greatest memories will always be watching your stomach grow with our babies. To see how strong you were the whole time makes my heart swell up with so much pride. The first time I felt them move or saw a tiny little foot move across your stomach will forever be etched into my memory. To see your eyes light up whenever you talked about the babies or made plans about their future. Even the day your hair was covered in paint when we were painting the twins’ bedroom. Each moment has been a blessing that I will never take for granted.

Thank you for giving me those memories, Heather.

Thank you for being such an amazing wife and for loving me like you do.

I can only hope that I am able to show you each and every day just how much I love you, Will, and Libby. I love you more than the air I breathe, and I thank God every day, Heather, that he brought you into my life. You will forever be the love of my life, my entire world, and my reason for being.

I love you infinity.

Dear Pumpkin,

I wish I could fill this letter with amazing memories of the first moment I found out you were pregnant or the first time I felt the baby move. My mistakes do not allow me to do that.

What I can do is tell you that the first time I felt our child move, the day you forgave me and we started again, was one of the happiest days of my life. But then, too many things have happened to us these last few months, and I could title them all as the happiest days of my life. I’ve come to the realization that just being with you, being married to you, and experiencing these last few months of our pregnancy have been the happiest days of my life.

Something happened to me the day our daughter was born. A part of me healed. To hear the cries of our daughter move through my body like a warm breeze was probably one of the most magical moments of my life. I’ve never felt so complete as I did the moment she looked up into my eyes. I’m honored to be able to share this with you.

As I watched you this morning with Maegan, my heart was so overcome with so much love that I had to step out of the room. I took a walk outside and let the tears fall from eyes as I thought about how blessed I truly am to have a woman so amazing love me like you do. To watch you, Amanda, with our daughter, who is everything to me, is just the most wonderful experience I’ve ever had.

I thank God every single moment I can that he gave me the strength to put my mistakes behind me and that he gave you the courage to love me enough to forgive me. I love you so very much, Amanda. I promise you, I will always be there for you and Maegan. You both are my entire world. You’re both my everything.
