Dear Sprout,

This past couple of weeks have been so exciting!  I found out not so long ago that you are on your way.  I have of course told your daddy and then your grandparents, aunt, and uncles.  Everyone is so excited that you will be joining our family.  They cannot wait until January to see your sweet little face!  Don’t rush though.  I am going to enjoy having you all to myself for the next eight months.


If I am being honest with you, your daddy is a little scared.  You are going to bring a big change to our lives, and even good changes can be scary.  But don’t worry.  Your daddy is very excited and already loves you very much.  We both do!


I am already praying for you every day and look forward to getting to hold you.  Snuggle in for now though; work on growing healthy and strong.


Love,
Mommy
