Hello beautiful Emma!

Most importantly for you once you read these messages is to know how much you are already loved. I realized tonight especially just how much you are wanted and have been LONG AWAITED.....how much we are excited to meet you, to hold you, play with you, and snuggle with you. Know how many people already love you! You have an amazing family and I can't wait for you to meet them. I can guarantee you will never want for anything, and you will never be denied love. We are all here to protect you and care for you. That is what a family does. There are lots of babies in the world who don't have the love that you will, but we will raise you to know how important love is, and how much you should scatter your joy all throughout your life. We will teach you a lot about joy. I have so much of it in my heart, I have to give some away, and you will too. Your Dad and I will teach you how to laugh and play and experience life to fullest. And most importantly, we will teach you about the God who gives us this joy! Know that I pray for you, little one, to be healthy and strong, to be protected by your angels all through your life, and that you would grow up to be a strong young woman who knows what she deserves, and is a shining example of what a Godly woman should be to all of the women around her. We will teach you to love and respect yourself and others unconditionally, and to love and adore God above all else.

We have so much fun waiting for us....so hurry up and grow!

Love, Momma
