And the months fly by

Dear Munchkin,

I haven't posted in a month!  But I think about you and love you every moment of every day.  I am 19 weeks as of today.  Apparently you can hear me now, so I'm trying to watch my language.  And I'm trying not to get too frustrated by everyday little annoyances.  I still haven't felt you move yet, I don't think, but hopefully I will within the next few weeks.  I still have all sorts of scary thoughts about what could go wrong, but I am trying to relax and enjoy this time.

Right now we're getting ready for Pesach, which starts next week.  And I find myself trying to envision you in a few years, asking the Four Questions, singing us the songs you've learned at school, asking genuine questions and offering us your own unique insights into the story of our liberation.  I wonder who you'll be, little one.  I'm so excited to meet you.  I'm a week away from being "half-baked" and 5 weeks from "V-Day" (viability day - not that I'd want you to be born at 24 weeks, but babies born at that point have a reasonable chance of survival).

Baby girl, your Daddy and I love you SO much.  Daddy kisses you through my belly pretty much every day.  We're both so eager to meet you (well, not just yet!) and get to know you.  I love having you with me all the time.  Keep growing, keep cooking, keep amazing us.

love,
Mommy
