hello my love!

happy new year, teeny tiny!  this is your year.  last night i told your daddy how happy 2015 was for us and he said, “2016 will be even happier.”  we cannot even wait to meet you in 16 more fridays and i know it will be here before we know it.  i can’t even believe how fast time has flown by from that moment when we first found out we were having you.  just promise me one thing…that you won’t grow up too fast.  that we will take every moment for the blessing that it is and we won’t let time pass so quickly.  just stay little and be ours forever.

i know you just adored our babymoon to new york city just as much as your daddy and i did.  and we sure enjoyed every second we were there, celebrating you!  we spoiled you a bit as we dined at celebrity chef restaurants each night and enjoyed that perfect slice of carrot cake at carlo’s bake shop.  don’t worry, mommy is looking into having more of that carrot cake delivered from new jersey…those little bites were heaven, weren’t they?  and when we weren’t enjoying everything scrumptious about new york, you enjoyed broadway just as much as we did as you kicked and hiccuped throughout Wicked.  oh, the music was everything we hoped it would be and as you danced in my belly, i knew you loved it too.  if that wasn’t enough, you were such a trooper as i stubbornly climbed the stairs in the statue of liberty.  even carrying you with me, we made it while others were giving up.  i guess that is something you should know about your daddy and me, we like to do it all and live with no regrets.

during our trip, your daddy just made my heart pitter patter as he talked about wanting to bring you back to new york.  to see a play on broadway, to take in the beautiful sights, visit the museums and let you pick out little souvenirs to remind you of your travels.  we talk a lot about how we want to live our life with you and, most of all, we want to give you memorable experiences.  we want to take you places and show you so many things about life, instead of tell you about them.  we want you to try new things and not be afraid to fail, but never give up if you do.  and while you are living life with no regrets, please always be kind.  show kindness in everything you do.  be a good person and always help others.  always be yourself and be yourself unapologetically.

this year is your year!  everything that we do from this moment on, we do for you.  you are our everything.

love, mommy
