I haven't seen you yet, but I love you. I know the way you kick, and tumble around inside. I spend every second of my time with you, and yet I crave to know you more, to be able to hold your little body and snuggle your little cheeks. Oh how much I love you without even ever seeing you. If I could keep you little forever, I would. If I could hold you under my wing for as long as I lived, I would, but I cannot do those things but I will promise to do this: I will love you forever, as long as I live. No matter where you go, what you do, or how you do it, I will always love you. You will always be my baby boy. My prayer for you is that you learn to serve God the way He created you to; with all your strength, mind and body. He will be your one stronghold in life that you can lean on. Become a man of God who loves and follows the Lord, and everything else will fall into place.
Little boy, I haven't even held you yet, but I cannot wait to see you take your first breath and hear you cry your first cry. To hold you in my arms and rock you to sleep just because I can. I want to cherish every second with you because life is too short not to. Before I know it you will have grown up and made a life for yourself, but right now I'm going to live in this moment, and cherish the little kicks and wiggles you do. My son, please never forget how much I love you.
(sniff, sniff) I love him, too!!! Can't wait to meet the little fella...
