Sun shining down making me open myeyes

The girl who’s been there for solong

My life cracking until you made itstrong.

At first I didn’t want to see the hold you had onme

I didn't want to believe until you gave me thekey

Your arms wrapped around metight

My story suddenly starting torewrite.

This is my last chance to make itright

My last chance to prove toyou

No matter what pain isahead

You’re worth every path I’ve beenled.

I tried to say nothing washappening

That we weren’t at thebeginning

But the hold you had onme

Proved I was just too blind tosee.

You’re the girl that’s myforever

This is more than a now ornever.

This is my last chance to make itright

My last chance to prove toyou

No matter what pain isahead

You’re worth every path I’ve beenled.

My lastchance.

“Connor,”I whisper, after reading the lastline.

I can barely see, my eyes are so full, as well as my heart. I can’t believe he did this forme.

“I mean it, Kenzie. I wish we had more time, but I wouldn’t change a thing that lead me to exactly where I am now. Seeing you carry our baby means the world tome.”

His lips brush mine, and I wrap my arms around the man who is my everything. Not only has he given me more than I’ve ever imagined, he’s brought it full circle and has given me the love you hear about insongs.

My life may not be the luckiest, but having him by my side makes every day amiracle.

Dear Baby Girl,

Any dayI’ll get to meet you. I’m nervous, I’m scared, and I’m excited. But more than anything, I’m ready. Your father on the other hand is a nervous wreck. He has packed and repacked multiple times as well as checking out the fastest routes to the hospital for what time of day you decide to arrive. He’s so excited to be a dad and wants everything to go perfectly. Hopefully the next time I write, I’ll have you in my arms and I’ll get to gush over every little thing I love aboutyou.
