Happy 8th Birthday to our Ava. 

Gina’s Monologue to her unborn child a day before she was born, Ava.  

We pray for you to have many, many more birthdays ahead. Little did I know how innocent we both were in becoming mother and daughter.  My love for you was there long before you were born.  I think of every single mother sitting in her own rocking chair waiting to deliver a healthy and happy baby.  We all want 10 fingers and 10 toes. We all want a healthy child. We all want a family. I think of every mother sitting in her own rocking chair and either getting rushed to the hospital in an emergency situation or walking down the hall and her water breaks…

We are all mothers wanting to hear the first cry from our child. We are all mothers wanting to watch our child grow to be great woman or man. 

We are all mothers of wonderful and spectacular children. Healthy, rare or undiagnosed.

Happy Birthday to my sweet Ava. You are so strong and you are still the rock of our family.

Much love,

Gina
