there's a first for everything

dear baby walker,

you are only the size of a shrimp in my belly, but i am your mother.

ya, it scares me too.

but you, little shrimp, have already brought so much happiness into this world.

it makes me so happy when i get to hear you little heart beat inside me. when i get to read about your

development from week to week.

you have fingerprints already. fingerprints!

i will never forget the smile on your dad's face when we found out you were coming.

it was a big one.

you have grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, great-grandparents, and others who can't wait to meet you.

november couldn't be farther away.

but you are mine and i am yours, forever.

i love you to the moon and back,

mom
