Happy Mother’s Day Mommy!!!

I asked Daddy to write these things down because I want you to know just how much I love you! I am soooooooo glad that you are my Mommy and I want to thank you for taking such good care of me during my first 5 pre-birth months. Though I can’t wait to see your face smiling looking at me I think I’ll stay put for a few more months and just imagine what it will be like if that’s OK.

I apologize for using your bladder as a trampoline but it is just so much fun I can’t help it! As for heartburn; I hope it’s worth it when you see how beautiful my hair is.

It‘s time to stop reading and open the presents I asked Daddy to get for you. (I have a present for you Mommy! Hee hee hee….better get used to that!) After you open your presents come back to this because I want to tell you about them. Take your time….I’m not going anywhere.

Dum dee dum dee dum dum….. dum dee dum dee dum dum….. dum dee dum dee dum dum….. dum dee dum dee dum dum…..

Are you ready? Did you open them?

I asked Daddy to get a couple of books. I would really like it if you start reading to me now because I love to hear your voice and the books I chose are going to probably be a couple of my favorites.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar: I chose this book because the hungry caterpillar, well, that’s me! I am eating everything now (thanks for sharing) and I will keep eating and keep growing and I too will push my way out of my little cocoon and be a beautiful butterfly!!! I know, I know, it is just a metaphor; I won’t really be a butterfly but I hope to be the beautiful little girl you hope for after my 9 month transition.

Goodnight Moon: I may need you to read this on a regular basis too because I am, as you know, an active child and may need a soothing story to calm me down and get me to sleep. I think this book may just do the trick. You could probably read me some of the books you read for book club Mommy and your beautiful voice could lull me to sleep but it might as well be something we both enjoy like Goodnight Moon! Who knows? It may put you to sleep too!

I love you and I am so very glad that you are my Mommy. Thanks again for your love and care and I can’t wait to see you in September!!!

Love, your daughter.
(I haven’t decided what name I like yet but I’ll let you know!)
