first entry

dear baby,

this is the first time i'm writing to you, though i've secretly spoken to you in thoughts. and since you and i share one piece of real estate, i figure you and i have some sort of an unspoken agreement about our thoughts.

we were at the doc's today and you've grown so much. daddy hasn't seen you for 3 months and it was indeed a treat. you have really cute cheeks and it's such a thrill to see you touch your face as you always do and open and close your little luscious lips. we are wrapping our brains around the idea that you are an entirely independent, little angel. and every time when i think about how time flies and how very soon i'll be able to see, hug and kiss you, my eyes sting a little.

we are waiting quite patiently for the day you greet the world...because every little moment now is a gift to us. momma is a little scared since this is the first time i'll be having a baby and you know what - seeing you through the doc's ultrasound machine gives me a lot of courage to pull through for you - mentally and physically.

love,
momma
