Dear Bebé Girl,

In this letter, I will not talk about how hard the journey was to reach this point - because as everyone said to me, it will all be worth it once we feel you move. And they were so right.

You are already fiesty and can’t sit still just like your Mama. You’re also very stubborn like your Dada (heck, and your Mama!) that you only move when YOU want and not when prompted. Friday will be our halfway point of this incredibly unique pregnancy journey and you may or may not already have a full closet, but no where to sleep just yet. We will get there little lady. #fashionmajor

It is so strange to be here because we had started to lose hope and yet you, you little strong miracle, warrior rainbow baby has made it this far which makes you so very special to your Daddy and me. It’s going to be a freakin’ blast to watch you grow and learn and form your own thoughts and opinions.

I promise I won’t go overboard with pink stuff but I can’t promise a camera won’t be in your face throughout your days. I have so many other promises and hopes and dreams but I will save those for when you are free of womb.

We have been waiting so long for you little one, and we just can’t wait to meet you - but come when you’re good and healthy and ready to enter this new world.
