Julie has started to feel the little crumb cruncher bumping around inside.
I startled her last night opening the door to the bedroom and even though she was fully awake, the little one was sound asleep when I felt for it.
Feeling your baby inside your wife is one of the most amazing experiences. It is an incredibly satisfying and almost spiritual event. It speaks to every boy gene and testosterone saturated cell that “you did good” you made another you.
And when it is all said and done the drive in men is for that. To make another you, to pass on the generations, to father, to provide, to sustain, to create. It is the very father heart of God.
I can hardly wait to feel the little one kicking and bumping my back as my wife lies next to me sleeping.
It may just keep me awake all night thanking God for things that go bump in the night.
