Baby Mine,
This week I met a new life, Harlen. I watched as his mother struggled to bring him into the world and cried as she was rushed off for an emergency c-section. I cried again when all went well and I had the joy of meeting this brand new little man, another miracle brought into world. Harlen's mom didn't think she would ever have a baby either, and yet there he is. I am caring for his big sister, only 10 months older then him, she was adopted and a few months later they found out Harlen was on the way. As I play with Juliette, and think about little Harlen, I can't help wishing it was you in my arms. She loves bath time, and it's so much fun watching her play in the water each night, and I wonder, will you like baths, will you be a little water bug like your mama? Will you love vegetables or will you turn your nose up at them? What will you be like? I can't wait to meet you Baby Mine, I can't wait to give you baths, and rock you to sleep at night, I can't wait to feel your soft baby breaths blowing on my neck as you snuggle against me. Hurry and come little one, we've been waiting so long for you!
Love always,
Mommy

Baby Mine
My sweet baby,
You aren't even conceived yet but still I think about you every day. You are already in my heart and part of my life as we wait to see those lovely pink lines that mean you will finally be in our arms. Today the first snow fell and I wondered what your reaction will be when you see your first snow, and you will see snow, lots of it. Your life will not be ordinary, but then nothing about you is ordinary, nothing about you will ever be ordinary, you are an extraordinary being born from prayers, and tears, dreams and hope. You're early life will likely be in a remote village in Alaska, a far cry from many people's life, but a life of adventure and magic can be found here, and we can't wait to help you discover it! Already you are part of an extraordinary home, lives that wait to love you, cherish you, encourage you. You have seven siblings and while three of them have left home they will always be there for you. From the day you finally join us on earth you will be wrapped in a cocoon of warmth and love. Please hurry and come sweet baby of mine, we can't wait to hold you and show you the wonders of life on this planet!
All my love always,
Mommy
