Our Little Pearl


As hard as it is to accept Meg's disability the knowledge that Meg was destined to be born helps a lot. Here is Meg's black pearl story for those that haven't heard it before.


For my 39th Birthday in May - 2 years ago - Jason gave me a set of Black pearl pendant & earrings. About one month later I discovered I was pregnant. To say I was freaked out was a bit of an understatement, Jason and I were planning our wedding in Fiji the coming November, I had already bought my wedding dress and now I would be 6 months pregnant!

Feeling overwhelmed with it all I got on the net to see when baby would be born, according to one site it would be in February 2008 – the website in question informed me I was having an Aquarian baby and invited me to look at my babies star sign. Upon reading all about how wonderful an Aquarian baby would be, the last thing on the page was the Gem for an Aquarian is a black pearl!
Dodododo – what coincidence – Jason said they had not come with a pregnancy warning!!

Anyway along went the pregnancy for a few months and Jason and I had decided we liked the name Meg so the bump had a name just between the 2 of us – (We didn’t know for sure it was a girl yet and didn't until she was born - was just a feeling) anyway after a while I got back on the trusty net to find out the meaning of the name Meg and low and behold in Greek Meg (Megan) means pearl!! - way too much of a coincidence - Meg was meant to be and we love her incredibly.


Then off course she was born on Valentines day – so a true Love child Meg is!!
