Someday at Christmas.....


I love Stevie Wonder. This is one of my favorite holiday songs by him. While the message is about world peace and things like that, the song has a much smaller, personal message to me. 

I know that someday at Christmas, Colin will not be in an incubator, but happy in my arms at home. 

I know that someday at Christmas, I won't have to travel 8 miles to see my son, but I'll only have to walk a few steps.

I know that someday at Christmas, Colin will not weigh just over 2 pounds, but will be a much heavier, chunky Campbell baby!

I know that someday at Christmas, I won't have to pump my breastmilk to a cold, unfeeling machine, but I can feed it directly to my little boy who will be in my arms. 

I know that someday at Christmas, we will not have to celebrate Christmas in a cold hospital, but in the warmth of our living room with a Christmas tree to look at. 

I know that someday at Christmas, we will be able to send a Christmas card with a family picture, and Colin will be included, right in my arms. 

These are the little things that I dream about that I can't wait to happen next Christmas........
