A letter to my baby...


My baby,
I write this letter to share with you how I am feeling. You are all I think about. When I wake up I think about how I can’t wait for your arrival. When I go to sleep I dream about you. Will you be a boy or a girl? What are you experiencing inside of me? Are you as anxious to come as I am? Do you hear me talk? Do you feel my emotions? How will you make your debut into this world? What will you look like?
I hope you have my smile and your daddy’s eyes. I want you to have my sense of humor and your daddy’s brains. I want you to be ambitious and committed. I want you to laugh and have a good time. I hope you have a big heart that loves deeply and unconditionally. However, I want you to guard it and keep it safe.
My sweet first baby this world can be so mean. Please know that I will do anything to protect you. You are my life, my heart and my soul. No matter where this life takes us, you will always be my number one.
I think that you really wanted to be born. People try for years and struggle with having babies. You demanded to be created and I love you so much for that. You are like me already! Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise, it is good to know what you want.
I have always heard that when a mother holds her baby in her arms for the first time that the love she has becomes overwhelming. My baby, I already love you so much it hurts. I can’t wait to meet you and tell you that I love you for the first time and kiss your sweet little face.
Until that moment though, I want you to grow and thrive, kick and flip, and stay safe and warm inside of me. I will think about you everyday. I will pray for you and love you until the day we meet.
Love, Your Mommy
