38 weeks.

My son,

This past week we celebrated Thanksgiving and, boy, do we have a lot to be thankful for! You are one of the best gifts your daddy and I have ever been given and we continuously praise God and give him thanks for allowing us to be your parents. We are just so honored and privileged and humbled. Above all else this year, we are thankful for you, Graham!

This weekend we bought our Christmas tree and it makes the whole house smell so wonderful. I can't wait to hold you and rock you by it so you can see all of the beautiful lights. It's pretty exciting that the month of December starts this week. It's the month I've been looking forward to since your daddy and I saw those two lines way back in April. In some ways, that day seems like yesterday, but in others, it seems worlds away. It won't be too long now 'til we're skin against skin, soaking in the joy of life together.

I am pretty much in constant anticipation of you. Every day I can feel my body becoming more and more prepared to birth you. I'm not afraid- just so confident that you and I were made just for this, honey. We have another appointment tomorrow and I am really looking forward to seeing how we've progressed in the past week. I am trying to enjoy the last few days or weeks of my pregnancy, but I can hardly wait to see you, smell you, and kiss you. You have 3 days left until you'll be a December baby. I wonder if we can wait it out that long??

Most mornings your daddy will roll over in bed to me and say Ready for a great day, sweetie?!? Well, Graham, ready for a great life?!? Come on out whenever you're ready, cause it's gonna be a good one.

I love you,

Momma
