Letter to Evie

Thursday, March 19, 2015

With under a month away from her due date, I thought I would take this chance to write a letter to my baby girl.


Dear Evelyn-

You are going to be here in less than a month. Mommy is so over the moon excited. Daddy is too, along with terrified. We have been anxiously awaiting your arrival for what seems like the longest nine months ever.

These past nine months have been interesting to say the least. Mommy and Daddy got married, mommy acclimated to her new job and you have been growing away. We have loved each moment of seeing you develop. I remember feeling your first little kicks, to watching Daddy read to you and feeling you move. You have been a good baby so far!

So many people are excited for your arrival as well. You have grandparents, aunts and uncles and friends already born and ready for play dates. I can't wait for you to meet everyone that already loves you so much.

Sweet Evie, Mommy prayed for you for so long. She wanted you before you were even born and now she is just so ready for you to be in her arms. Know that no matter what, Mommy and Daddy love you so much. We have hopes and dreams for you, but most of all, we just want you to be happy and healthy.

xoxo Mommy

  2. Love the letter that you wrote to Evie--it'll be so fun for you to be able to read it to her one day when she really is able to understand just how much she was loved before she even got here :)

  3. In tears. From hormones, no doubt, but also because I know how very much you want this sweet little girl, how very loved she is, and how very wished for she has been for oh, so long!!! Your little miracle baby. I can't WAIT to watch you become a mother. I know you will be absolutely great at it - it will definitely be your most favorite job ever:) And reminded that I need to share Vivi's letter one day soon too. Can't believe we are so close to finally meeting these sweet babies. Goodness. So ready. But so scared at the same time. Love you, dear friend. And glad we are embarking on the journey of having daughters together! It's less scary knowing that I have a dear friend going through the same thing.
