Hello sweet pea. Mommy and I are here again tonight, watching you grow. I get the same feeling every time I see you and although it’s hard to describe, it’s like when I saw Mommy walking down the aisle in her wedding dress. She looked so beautiful and I can’t wait when you’re big enough, you’ll get to see. I thought that the feeling I got was a one time, magical moment that I wouldn’t experience again. Then, you were born and I got that wonderful feeling all over again. Now, I get that feeling each and every day I see your little face and I’m so thankful for you.
My mind races when I sit and stare at you. I can’t help but smile at your every movement. I wonder what you will look like when you get bigger, I wonder what your personality will be like. Will you play sports like Daddy and be a cheerleader like Mommy? Will you like math or science better? Will you love music or reading? One thing is for sure…we will teach you to be kind, generous and help those in need. Just like all of our friends and family have done for us. So, take your time little one, we’ll wait for you as long as it takes. And I’ll continue to sit here and wonder…
Love,
Daddy
You are such a sweet daddy. She is so blessed to have both of you. Because of your love she will flourish and thrive. Your love will nurture her and allow her to be who she is meant to be. But your examples of love and respect will be what molds the core of her spirit.
That feeling of amazement and wonder will never cease not matter what her age is or how far she travels.
You guys are great parents and a strong couple. God knows to whom he entrusts a preemie baby. It takes a strong, determined, understanding and a heart that is full of love. That is what you and Chenny are.
