Today has been 8 years in the making. Today is the day we have dreamed of as JaSam fans since Sam found out she was pregnant in 2004 and Jason rushed into the abortion clinic to make sure she was okay. Today we got to finally hear the words that Sam is carrying Jason's baby. "I am carrying Jason's baby. I mean he is the father?!". A dream come true. Today was the first time we have seen Sam and Jason smile those smiles they had during their honeymoon. Jason has already known deep down that baby was his. He has been fusing over Sam and this pregnancy so much that he knew deep down that baby was his. Today Jason got confirmation.
Jason has been so completely wrecked with emotion since the night Sam was raped. He could not protect her and that tore his whole heart out. Then to find out Sam was pregnant but only to fear the baby was Franco's was also torturing Jason. But this time it was a different torture. This time he did not know what to do. Because even if Sam had been pregnant with Franco's baby, Jason loves Sam with his whole heart. He would have loved that child all the same because that baby was also Sam's baby. The paternity to him wasn't as critical because he knew Sam was the mother of the child. All of her goodness would have come through to that child. He knew that deep down. But today all of those fears were washed away. Today Jason got the greatest news of his life. The woman he loves more then life is carrying HIS baby. That is a feeling Jason has never experienced before. Jason didn't love Elizabeth (Liason fans move on, sorry, but it is true). Their child wasn't a child that was created out of a deep felt passionate love. The reality of it is, their child (while loved deeply by all 3 of his parents) was not planned nor a product of a long lasting love. Jason has never known this feeling and emotion today. It washed over him. His face beamed, tears welled up in his eyes. He was so blissfully happy. That was beautiful to watch. Jason was also so amazed by the beauty of seeing his beautiful wife smile again.
Sam has been dreaming of this moment as long as we have as fans. Sam has longed to be able to hear the words that she is carrying Jason's baby. Even when she was pregnant with Sonny's baby she dreamed it was Jason. This was an incredible day for her as well. The rape of Franco has tarnished her entire first trimester, but today it can't tarnish it any longer. Sam will still have nightmares of the rape - this will not erase the rape or the trauma it inflicted. However, the pregnancy of carrying Jason's baby reminds her of the Phoenix. 'The Phoenix can turn bad luck into good.' Today we saw exactly that. Sam's horrible bad luck of tragedy and rape turned out to not affect her pregnancy. Sam's fears are completely relieved. She is pregnant with Jason's child. That is all she has ever wanted. She is married to Jason and is carrying his child. All of her dreams are coming true as so are ours as fans.
Sam to Jason: "How amazing is it to think that, in time, we are going to sitting out on that terrace staring up at the stars knowing that there is a whole world of possibilities staring back at us. "
On another note - Matt and Maxie really need to decide what to do and stick to it because there is no reason to hurt Spinelli in the process. We all know Maxie and Spinelli belong together. While I am sad Kirsten Storms is not returning to play Maxie, Jenn Lilly is growing on me. But either way, Spinelli does not deserve getting hurt in any of this.

Nice to read your blog again. You summed it all up so beautifully, and made me tear up again just reading today's JaSam story. So long overdue, and so deserved. Now they can be happy a little bit (before the next crisis, which hope will not last long). This couple is so realistic and true that one can't help getting caught up in their lives, fiction though they may be. Hope TPTB realize how special they are.
