Jackson had waited for so long. He had hoped, prayed, and even cried as the months and years went by, asking me, “Why won’t God give us a baby? You had one in your belly once – I remember.”

You see, when Jackson was three, I had a miscarriage and it broke his heart. Watching him suffer as he longed for another baby was torture. I begged God to give Jackson his little brother or sister.

I had almost given up hope and then I found out I was pregnant! I pleaded with God to keep this baby alive. It was Jackson’s special baby – the sibling he had prayed for.

From the moment we told Jackson we were having a baby, he has been ecstatic about being a big brother. And when Olivia arrived, his joy only increased. He is bursting with pride and love for his little baby sister.

So when I saw these t-shirts from Cute as a Bug I knew Jackson would love them. He is all about being the “big brother!”

Cute as a Bug is a mom-owned store that has a wonderful selection of adorable and humorous bibs, t-shirts and onesies.

Amy, the designer and owner of Cute as a Bug, is also a fabulous blogger who in her words is a “Wife, mother, photographer, activist. Trying to change the world, one blog post at a time.” You will love her blog, Crunchy Domestic Goddess.

Amy also has another store called Attached at the Hip that features attachment parenting advocacy wear.

As part of our Christmas Giveaway, Amy is giving one of you the infant onesie or toddler t-shirt of your choice.
