Little Miss Pepper,
Turns out mommy is 37 and not 38 weeks. This whole time we've been 7 days ahead-- your due date is on Christmas! But we're really hoping you make a surprise appearance before then. We wanna be home cuddle up by our tree on that date (or showing you off to the family). I should note that about 2 weeks ago I went to check up on a us at the hospital because I was having false contractions. Grandma documented some of that.
But since it has been a month since I last wrote about you and our experience together, let's get some thing very important out of the way. The people of the US have chosen a president which may affect our future in some way. But you shouldn't worry because we're your parents and we're going to protect you. Just know that everyone is created equal no matter who they love, what color their skin is or where they were born. People are human and we respect everyone so long as they respect us. And sometimes it's better to continue with kindness even though someone may be a little mean to us. More on that later in life lessons...
Today is Monday. It's my first day at home as I'm no longer going into work. I got a few chores done around the house and now I'm planning meals so that I can manage dinner when you arrive. I'll be doing a lot of that from here on out-- plan, plan, plan!
Friday, mommy turns 28! I wonder what dad and I will do. It is a work day for him after all. All I know is that I want to go out for a full breakfast!
Now come out soon because you're crowding up mommy's insides and making her feel all degrees of heartburn ;)
Always in love with you,
Mommy
