Hi Junior,
Guess what? Auntie Kim, Uncle Gugs, and Allison sent you a very special gift last weekend: an ergo so that we can carry you everywhere, parenting CDs so that we can get some advice on raising you up in the Lord, and this -- your most beautiful possession. Auntie Kim must really love you -- and us. The amount of time and effort it took to create this absolute work of art is amazing (remember that she sewed every single eyeball, mane, hoof, and squiggle!).
Our doctors seem to think that, given your position, you will arrive this weekend. I started getting some contractions today -- but I guess they were false contractions? Try not to be a Halloween baby and stay inside until November. Halloween is a creepy holiday. And it would be nice for you and your dad to share a birthday month!
We're waiting patiently for you, although at night, I become less patient because sleep is really hard and really painful these days. It's not your fault, don't worry. And the days are numbered! Woohoo! We are so thankful to have gotten to this day with you -- and with your three other cousins who are due right about now too (although they are all second children - you're the only firstborn in this week's wave).
See you soon, Junior.
Love,
Mommy (and Daddy)
P.S. I was watching Daddy play with your cousin Aidan today at the basketball court. He is such a good teacher, and he is going to be such a good dad. You are lucky, lucky, lucky.
