Your father and I sure have been busy! Insurance, doctor appointments, telling the relatives, it's all very stressful and very, very exciting. Everyone is so excited that you are on the way. I don't know if you will remember them when you're older or not, but your great-grandparents, my Grandma and Grandpa, are just absolutely ecstatic.

You will find in your life that anticipation of great things is a double edged sword, Little One, it inspires both great happiness and great stress. It makes one question themselves, their strengths and if they are strong enough, their weaknesses and if they shall be overcome by them, if they are ready or if they ever really will be. Many, many questions, but hold onto the happiness through it all, hold onto the HOPE that great opportunities give.

You, Little One, hold so much potential, even now tiny as you are. You are a blessing and a joy even though you make me nauseous more often than not. We love you so much and you will be so wonderful just because you are you.
