Dear Andy,
It seems like yesterday when I was carrying you inside me and eagerly anticipating the day/ moment that you'd really (actually) come out of hotel mom.
It seem like yesterday when I first went to the pharmacy and bought the pregnancy test kit in order to determine that I was indeed pregnant.
It seem like yesterday when I had to rush to the my obstetrician to check why my tummy was contracting at such an early time, when it was not supposed to. And had to remind myself that I was already pregnant and I had to slow down on how I move about. And how I would carry myself around the office.
It so seem like yesterday when I would fret at what the gender of my baby would be. Secretly hoping I was carrying a boy and then realized that it is not important (anymore) and that the most important thing was that you and I were in perfect health awaiting the most exciting day of our lives.
It so seem like yesterday when I'd hear people ask me if I was really pregnant. If I had not just swallowed a ball or watermelon because I did not really got too fat. That I was so much in control of the food I eat thinking I had to control my weight gain. Praying to God that when I do that I would not have a hard time in labor.
It so seem like yesterday when I asked the nurse about me being in labor and asking Jay to help me get a taxi because I still had to go home so I'd get our things and eat some before I admit myself to the hospital.
Now, more than two years after I had you I am so amazed at how you have grown. How you can talk and throw questions at me.
I will not stop at this amazement. I may be so far away from you but I know one day I will be spending more time with you and marvel at the most precious gift that was given me.
I love you so much Andrea!
xoxo,
Mommy
