My lovely little girl,
Only five more weeks until you arrive! Everyone is so excited for you to be here so that we can all love on you and cuddle you. I know that you are the prettiest girl in the world. Your daddy couldn’t agree more. We stay awake for hours at night, trying to fathom how small and precious you will be when you arrive. I am almost finished with school- only about another three weeks. You are on my mind all the time and sometimes it is very difficult to focus on school and my studies. I just can’t wait until it’s just me and you and daddy at home, cuddling in our bed. We are working hard to get everything ready for when you get here. Last weekend was my baby shower in Houston and I got so many things that I know you will love. I also have another baby shower this weekend in Austin. Your grandmothers are amazing women. You won’t even believe how much they love you and how they will do anything for you. But I want you to know, my little one, that no one will ever love you like I love you. From the moment I knew you were in my tummy, I felt nothing but an overwhelming love for you. I will take care of you all the days of my life.
Love,
Mama
One thing I have learned: Nothing in your life has prepared you for how much you will love your little one.
ReplyDeleteAlso, nothing in her life has prepared your mom for how much she will love your little one. It's something of a miracle, because we all have many people we love, but love multiplies; it does not divide.
How can she be anything but beautiful? I can hardly breathe just thinking about the new generation you're creating. I love you.
You are beginning to understand what I've meant all this time when I said and still say, "Karie, I love you!".
