Dear Bubbles,
For the past 37 and a bit weeks I have carried you in my womb, you have been a part of me yet already your own little being with its only little beating heart and functioning brain, no matter what the future holds you will always be a part of me and a part of your father too, carrying both our genes but no matter where life will take us I will never forget the time that I carried you in my womb, the time that nothing could be any closer to my heart then you are.

For months I have loved you without ever seeing your face or knowing you as an individual person but very soon the months of waiting to meet you will be over. Its sometimes hard to get my mind around the fact that in only a short time you will be here, that I will hold you in my arms and be able to gaze down into your eyes and look upon the miracle and wonder that is a newborn baby. What an amazing miracle the continuation of the human species is, to think that you form from two tiny cells much smaller then the eye can see and then over what is realisticly only a short span of time those two cells become a fully fuctional little human being. Its an amazing wonderous process that I feel truely blessed to have been able to experience.

As I sit here typing this I can feel you moving around in my womb sometimes a gentle wave other times a sharp kick but each movement a precious sign that you are there and that everything is okay with you. Today I got to see you again, you have grown so much since our last scan 17 weeks ago, to clearly see your heart and other organs, to see your little head and your spine and all the bits that make you a whole human in your own right is amazing. I can not wait until you are here my precious little man, until I can hold you and share this world with you, guiding you and teaching you the things that you need to know.
