On my birthday, Rob woke me up with breakfast in bed. He surprised me with a maternity shoot we would do together next week, which I was very excited about. All his gifts were so sweet, I once again felt like I didn't deserve him. He got me a painting with our baby's actual heartbeat drawn onto it, that we immediately hung up in our bedroom. That topped the matching-tattoos-idea I had planned for his birthday next month (we'd both get an 'N' tattooed on the same spot).. I'm still gonna do it, though. I'm sure he'll love it. We went out with some friends later that day to celebrate and quickly stopped by my parents' place in the afternoon to collect some hugs before we went back home. We cooked together as we had decided to keep it easy today, considering my state. After dinner, Rob surprised me with the most beautiful gift I had ever gotten in my life: he pulled out his guitar and sang me a song he had written for me. Needless to say, I was ugly-crying before the second verse ended:
from the day we met i liked the effect that you had on my eyes
you gave me love, gave me faith you showed me a place where i could breathe in serenity and peace
there was a time when i let you go allowed myself to be swayed and pulled many years have gone by though sure i'd lost you swore i'd be fine till i realised you still loved me then i knew our time would come after all i never forgot you
they told us we were young and dumb that we didn't know 'bout love
but when i feel my heart go dark inside only you know how to bring it back to life
every morning that i wake now you fill my heart with love there's a sweetness just the same as before
and when the evening pulls the sundown as the day is almost through oh the whole world may be sleeping but my only world is you
if i look back on the moments how they all played their part there is meaning to be found in the still of the dark
daylight burns away tomorrow people change but i will know you always
i know that time moves on but some things don't change i still fall in love with you every time i see your eyes it takes me back to the first time i saw you smile now look at all the things we've become but i'll never stop getting butterflies every time i look into your eyes you won't stop running through my mind for the rest of both our lives
heaven's here, it's right where you're standing you are my sun brought light where there was none
