I used to wonder how pregnancy and motherhood would change Kelly. I heard stories from some men who said that romance takes a backseat when a kid arrives. Some of my friends shy away from pregnancy for the same reasons.
Well, even though we don’t have Hallie with us just yet, I have to say that any fears I may have had were completely unfounded.
Kelly looked great throughout her pregnancy. Her disposition was always a sunny one. And now that her pregnancy is over, her body has almost completely bounced back into shape.
But now there’s another certain glow to her. Not one of pregnancy, but one of motherhood. I look in her face and see her beaming at her wonderful accomplishment, even when she doesn’t realize she’s doing it. Her pride shows.
So now we’re on the other side of pregnancy. But it’s so much more. Because it’s parenthood.
And when I’m not gazing at our beautiful daughter, I can’t help but gaze at her beautiful mother. Both of them leave me speechless.
Motherhood hasn’t taken anything from Kelly. It has only made her more beautiful than ever.
