monster truck licked my nose!!

hi sweet ones! this will probably be a short note as i have a few things i need to get done before going to bed, but i wanted to tell you a few things!

i hope you enjoyed your letter from MaMa joni! she's a wonderful person and when you meet her, you'll totally agree that she is one special lady! i bet you wanted to have some of her muffins after she told you she was cooking them. i know i did. we both hope that she can be there when you're born (whenever that is!). she belongs there, along with your daddy, grandma and your grandpa. thats assuming they all want to be there! daddy doesn't get a say in the matter, though.

you've been in my thoughts a lot today. i played with the 2 little girls i babysit and while i was playing with them, i was wishing they were you. sometimes being a nanny is hard on your mommy, as i so wish you were here or at least in my tummy already, making your way here. i have so many hugs and so many kisses to give you!! i have so many tummy rides, airplane rides to give you and lots of raspberries to attack those bellies of yours with! don't worry, it doesn't hurt!!! it tickles like crazy!!! when i see ailia and leila's mommy and daddy hug and kiss them - i see the love they have for their babies and i can only imagine the feeling they have each and every day when they see them wake up, play, cry, eat, sleep, laugh, and everything else. i have that same love - even more so - for you and you're not even here yet. i can't imagine how much i will love you when you're here and i can hold you and kiss you and hug you and feel you in my arms! what a great day that will be!!!

daddy and i are eagerly awaiting your arrival. one day you will be in my tummy and i'll feel you doing backflips and moonwalks in my tummy. one day you'll be in my arms and on my breast, where we'll bond and grow to love each other and trust one another. some day you'll be there and i'll take you to school for the first time and be eager to hear all about your day when you get home. oh for the days where we can hang out and be friends and learn from one another. i love you, my babies. i must go for now but know i'm thinking of you always and love you always and forever.

love,
mommy.
