Dear Baby Boy,
We will see your sweet face
tomorrow. I will become a mommy and Tanner will become a daddy. My whole being
will change and my heart is going to feel things I didn’t know were possible. I’m
swimming in so many feelings; excited, nervous, happy, scared. I’m trying to
soak up the last day of just being Ashton but I know God is already preparing
my heart for tomorrow. Today’s Ashton is going to be a much better version by
tomorrow night.
Every time I get nervous about
the actual delivery I think about the moment they will lay you on my chest and
we will see you for the first time. I think about your daddy right by my side,
seeing his face change as he takes you in. I think about how sweet your skin
will feel and how much that amazing newborn smell will fill my heart. I think
about how much my love for your daddy will grow as he coaches me through your
arrival and holds my heart as we make our family of two and family of three. I
think about introducing you to your grandparents, aunts, uncles, great
grandparents and cousins and seeing the joy and pride in
their eyes. I think about feeding you for the first time and all the little
noises your going to make as you sleep.
Each one of these thoughts brings
a tear and rush of emotions. We will close this chapter of our lives tonight
and start the best chapter of our story tomorrow, with you.
We love you sweet baby boy. Thank
you for making us parents.
Love, your mama
This is so sweet. Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteAshton, I have followed your blog for a couple of years now. I wanted to say Huge Congrats. Having a baby changes you. This letter to your son was so sweet and thoughtful. He has such a loving mamma. You have been glowing through your pregnancy too. I loved your pregnancy photos. You looked like a goddess in the baby blue maxi dress.
ReplyDeleteThe best of luck with delivery and I wish you both to be very healthy and happy together after the birth! Ada. =)
