Love letter

FEBRUARY 4, 2012
PREVIOUSLY UNPUBLISHED POST 7 OF 9

Dear babies,

Your daddy loves you so much already.  This morning, although I was awake, I hadn't opened my eyes yet, your daddy rolled over and started rubbing the small bump on my belly where you, my loves, are.

"Good morning, babies. I'm your daddy."

It was so sweet.  On our way to work, he was giddy with happiness and excitement about the two of you.  He had the biggest smile the entire ride into town.

It makes me so happy when I think about how much you are already loved.  Your Aunt Andrea loves to greet you by whispering hello's into my belly button-I tell her to speak quietly so as not to hurt your tiny growing ears.  Aunt Betsy just can't wait for you to get here!  Your Aunt Nicole loves you so much already, too, and cannot wait to start buying little outfits once we know your genders.  Grandma left me a message the other day that she had bought you a book!  This was kind of surprising because she had previously said she didn't believe in buying gifts until you are here-even she couldn't resist!  Oma can't wait to start buying you gifts as well!  Aunt Dawn got teary thinking about how she is your aunt and her son Kristian, your cousin, knows you are in my belly and can't wait to meet you!  We have the best friends in Chris and Anna and cannot wait to have all of our children together and watch you play and interact.  These are just a small handful of friends and family that already love you, but I will promise you this, there are so many more!

I am so happy, honored, and blessed to be your mommy.  I have waited and wanted you for so long.  You will be born into so much love it makes my heart swell.  My love grows for you everyday and I give my belly lots of rubs as a reminder.  There are not words for how thankful we are for your beating hearts and growing bodies.

Thankfully yours, -Your Mommy
