Dear Baby,

Sometimes it hits me that I am going to have a new baby. Like the other day when I was in a meeting at work and you were moving so much that my belly was visibly moving. I was in awe as I watched it and suddenly it hit me: There's a baby in there! You would think that 8 months into the pregnancy I would understand this clearly by now but it is something that is strangely hard to wrap my head around. After the amazement of realizing there is a baby inside my belly comes a new even more powerful realization. You are not just a baby, you are another Max and another Maggie, which is to say that you are a little person that is going to rock my world and weave your way so much into my heart that I will sometimes have to catch my breath when I think of the wonderment that you are mine.

I'll be meeting you soon baby and I am excited! Are you a boy or a girl? Will you have hair? How big will you be? What will your name be? I'm so excited to learn these things and to hold you in my arms and start getting to know the amazing little person that you already are.

I love you baby!!!!!

Love,
Mom
