From Pregnancy Announcement to Becoming Parents
Let’s rewind a bit. Back in October, Ben and Erin excitedly announced their pregnancy on social media. Erin also took the time to share her personal journey on her blog, detailing the moment she found out she was expecting and how she broke the news to Ben. It’s these intimate moments that make their story so relatable and endearing to their fans.
The Emotional Journey of Becoming Parents
Erin shared a touching moment from that life-changing day. She explained how she ran to Ben, who was sound asleep, holding out the pregnancy test in disbelief. "I ran crying, falling onto Ben who was sound asleep. I couldn’t think of anything to say. I just held out the test to him, shaking and crying, 'What does this mean? What does this mean?' though I knew perfectly well what it meant,” she recalled. “He wrapped his huge, heavy arms around me and held me so close and said, 'Everything is going to be great.' And we cried. Ben felt nothing but joy.”
Even though Erin was overjoyed about becoming a mother, she admitted to having fears about motherhood since she was a child. In a heartfelt blog post, she expressed her hopes for Helen. “My prayer for Helen is that she will be brave and kind. I pray that she will not be bullied the way I was, and that she will be a protector of the ones who are. I pray that she will learn that from her father, the protector who loves the people in his life so well,” she wrote. “Thank you for making me a mother, Ben. Thank you for your heart and your love that’s big enough to carry Helen and I both, and for holding my hand every step of the way.”
