Kaley girl,
As we get closer and closer to the arrival of your baby sister I wanted to take some time away from the craziness that is life to let you know how much I love you and how much I truly enjoy being your mother.
Life as you know it is about to change in so many ways. I am sure that as time passes you will love your new life and family with your new baby sister as part of it but I am also sure that there will be some difficult times as well. All I can do is pray that God gives me the wisdom I need to help you through this transition and that He embraces you in His arms and assures you of not only His love but also the love your daddy and I have for you.
Since the day I found out that I was pregnant with your sister I have worried about you and how you would perceive things once your world is turned upside down by the arrival of this new baby girl. I know how much your father and I love you but will you know and understand that love when not 100% of our attention is on you? Will you know how much we have truly treasured these first (almost) 2 years of your life with just the three of us (oh yeah, and Bayla)? Will you know how much you have taught us about life and love in this short time? Will you know that your presence in our life has brought us more joy than anything in this world thus far? Will you sense my insecurities about being the mother of two? Will you embrace and love your new role of Big Sister the way I pray you do? I have so many other questions and so many worries; yet the only thing I can do is STOP. Stop speculating and worrying and put it all in God's hands.
You have been and will continue to be such a blessing to your daddy and me. With your arrival we turned from a married couple into a family and soon we will welcome your sister into that family. You will forever be my first-born, the one who gifted me with the role of mother and for that I am forever grateful. I love you more than I can ever come close to expressing in words. I hope and pray that you continue to blossom into the amazing and loving little girl you have already started to become. I am so proud of that little girl; just don’t grow up too fast on me! Thank you for being you!
I love you from the bottom of my heart and the deepest depths of my soul,
Mommy
