Music

I've always used writing as an outlet for emotions, and have a pile of notebooks and journals next to our bed to show for it. I can open one up and thumb to any page and be taken back to that exact moment. I can feel the fear or the excitement all over again. Some of it is poetic, some of it is just free writing. I've attempted a few songs, but I'm missing one crucial aspect of song writing: I can't sing. I can carry a tune, but the only person who enjoys listening to me sing songs in loops is Ariana.

I was sent a link to a song that I have listened to countless times in the past couple days. Her voice is captivating and her singing gives me goosebumps. She captures that moment beautifully and even though it's not my words from my experience I can feel the cold jelly and the Doppler on my stomach and still hear that racing heartbeat like it was the firs time again. i thought I would share it here so other Mommies can relive that moment again.
