Emilia's Journal

Dear Emilia,

It appears that you may be getting ready to move! But, an hour has passed now with no further report.

Your mom and I are going to take another walk.

Love, Dad

Emi-

I have loved every minute of being pregnant with you, but I am going to love getting to know you even more. These last days of waiting for you to come are the hardest because we are so excited to meet you. You have grown a lot in the past couple weeks and can give me a pretty strong kick to the ribs when you want to. You always let me or Dad know when we are encroaching on your space too much- by giving a nice strong push back. You usually do this if we rest an arm over you. I take this as a good sign that you already want to make yourself known. You also get the hiccups quite a bit which feels like fast little flutters. Friends and family are anxiously awaiting to meet you, and you already have so much love to welcome you into this world. We have been busily preparing for your arrival and now all we need is you.
