A Valentine letter.
Dear Baby P:
Happy heart day, my little newbie baby-to-be.
We've been hanging out together for a good eight and a half months now. And we have less than three weeks to go. I know your wiggles, but I don't know the color of your eyes or your hair. I don't know if you will have dimples or a birthmark. I can't imagine your laugh or your voice. And yet, you are loved so deeply. You have wiggled your way right into my heart and you are already a part of this family. We talk about you a lot and Sam likes to kiss you through my tummy.
I am so anxious to meet you. I am anxious to see just who you are and to give you great big snuggles. I can't wait to read you your first book and to play music for you. I am looking forward to seeing all of the ways that you change our family dynamic.
Daddy and I have been getting things ready for your arrival. There is now artwork on your walls and your clothes and blankets have been washed. The tiny newborn diapers and itty-bitty clothing that we've stashed in your dresser are nothing short of amazing. It is hard to believe that you will be so little.
You are loved, my little one. I am so thankful to be able to call you my Valentine.
All my love,
Mama
