Growth and Gratitude

Hi Little Lady!

You are getting big!  ... Well, Mommy is getting big.  You are only 1.5 lbs.  But you are more than a foot long and that's surprising to me!  You are an active little bugger and you like to give me lots of good kicks!  Keep them coming cause I love them!  We are still trying to decide on your name but we've got a pretty good idea of what we will settle on.  Your big sister loves you - she likes to kiss Mommy's belly and point to you.  I can't wait to see you girls play together.  And I can't wait to see Nora give you REAL kisses.  We will be meeting you in just 3 short months! Wow!  I was so excited to decorate your nursery and give you your own room and lots of nice new things - but we just found out that Daddy's EAD was delayed and we now have to stay in Grandma Irene's house for 5 more months ... and we won't have the money we were expecting to get you those nice things.  I'm sorry baby.  Just know that the love we have for you is worth more than anything money could buy.  And we will try hard to get you everything special.

We love you so much little one and cannot wait to see you and meet you.  I can't wait to feel that tangible love for you grow on demand.  I can't wait to hold you in my arms and let my tears of gratitude and joy flow.  I thank the Lord for you daily and I am so thankful you are coming to enhance our family.

Love always,
Mommy
