Dear Potential Baby,

Here I am.

Waiting for you again.

Hoping that you are really coming this month.

I think about you all the time.

Every day.

I think about getting that phone call that will tell me you’re actually there.

I think about telling your daddy about you for the first time.

I think about seeing your heartbeat.

I think about seeing your face on the ultrasound screen.

I think about telling your grandparents that you are coming.

I think about how my mom will be your Nana.

I think about how my dad has been praying for you for so long.

I think about what we’ll name you.

I wonder if you’ll have your daddy’s eyes and my hair…or my eyes and your daddy’s curls.

I think about how you’ll smell so amazing when we meet you.

I think about how you’ll have a tiny baby nose and tiny baby toes.

I think about snuggling you.

I wonder what Rufus and Kaya will think of you.

I think about your future.

I wonder about your first day of school.

I wonder if you will love reading as much as your daddy and I do.

I wonder what instrument you’ll want to play in band.

I wonder what you’ll grow up to be.

I wonder if you’ll ever know just how amazing you are to me.

I think about you all the time.

I really hope we get to meet you soon.

Love,

Your Potential Mama

OK, this post definitely made me cry. YOU were destined to be a mother, Erin. I work in a preschool and there are so, so, so many parents who make me WONDER why they ever had kids (especially if they have more than one!). I can’t wait to hear your pregnancy announcement and that baby is going to be one well-loved baby.
