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
