Dear Baby Girl,

You still don't have a name, and I'm so sorry. I'm working on it. Right now I am thinking about Rosie, Amalia, or Maggie. And your dad really likes Alexandra.

I was watching a show on TV the other day and it showed paintings from the 18th century and I was thinking about the people who the paintings were of, how they lived so long ago and they had their lives in that time and now their lives are past. And then I thought of you, so brand new, lying on my chest, and how this is your time. Your life is just starting, and it's so exciting. It is all stretched ahead of you. And I can't wait to watch it and be a part of it.

I love you baby girl!

Love,
Mom
