Dear Baby A,
Well, congratulations to you! You are now 3 months along and you are movin' and grovin' right along. It will be a couple more weeks before I'll be able to actually feel you, but I'm excited for that day to come. You might actually convince that this entire pregnancy thing is not a joke. *wink*
Over the last couple of weeks, your rapid development and growth has completely sucked all the energy right out of me. I was sleeping 13 hours a night EVERY SINGLE NIGHT and still felt like I need just 7-8 more hours. It was rough. But, the recovery is on its way and I finally feel like a normal person.
I've noticed a couple of things I want to be sure to remember. A couple of things I want to make SURE you know about:
Apparently, you make people feel invincible. Your grandfather told me he didn't need to get out of the tornado weather - After all, HE WAS GOING TO BE A GRANDFATHER.
You also give people the desire to celebrate Mother's Day. This will be the first Mother's Day in 5 years that my family will actually celebrate it. And, Baby A is going to be the star of that day for making me a "Mom-to-be". (How weird is that?!?!)
Your little library is quickly growing. And, your mother could not be more thrilled. WHO DOES NOT LOVE CLASSIC GOLDEN BOOKS?!?!?! You can thank your Grandma-Tina for that.
I had a lady dangle my necklace over my stomach and announce that I was having a girl. Boy or girl, we are excited to see you. We know you will be just a gorgeous baby. I mean, LOOK AT YOUR PARENTS!!!
There is nothing more magical, more incredible then hearing your little heart pounding away. Keep on keepin' on! You, Baby A, are 6 months away from making your grand entrance.
Dear Baby A, Keep the postcards and letters coming. We love hearing about you.

Bethany and Ben, I could not be more thrilled for you two! What a blessed time in your lives! I read your blog the other night from the first post to the last and it was like reading a sweet love story! I really enjoyed it, though, I did pay for staying up so late! LOL! My prayers are with you and I can't wait to read the next chapter God writes for you guys! Hope you have a wonderful day! By the way, this is Jamie Saunders - I couldn't figure out the comment as stuff so I had to put anonymous!
ReplyDeleteIt is incredible that your baby is so well-loved before the big arrival date. You guys are awesome. This blog is a fantastic idea, and "Baby A" will really appreciate knowing one day how excited the both of you are. God Bless all three of you!
