Doggy Bank
Hi Baby,
Today you are only a few weeks in the making. About the size of a poppy seed you are growing at a furious pace. When I read that I could compare you to a poppy seed I ran to the pantry to get one, hold one, just so I would know how tiny and special you already are. Papa and I have only known about you for four days but thoughts of you inundate my mind (in an awesome way). When I eat I think of what I am feeding you, when I drive I focus on being extra careful because I have a fragile package on-board. Throughout every second of every day — I think of you. I wonder if you are a boy or a girl? I wonder if you will get papas awesomely, long legs? Will you get the Callicutt dimple? All of these things will be answered in just a few months but oh how excited they make me!
You’ll learn pretty quickly that your mom is an art lover. Papa and I visited one of our favorite shops called “The Little Art Gallery” over the weekend. And, we purchased your first gift. What better than a gift of hand-crafted, local art? It’s a doggy bank and I can’t wait to show it to you. It’s so sweet and special and we bought it in a color that is gender neutral.

That way boy or girl you will love it. I plan to add any birth coins we get when your born to the bank so that you can keep them and someday show them to children of your very own. Why a doggy bank? You are destined to love animals and when you arrive home you’ll be greeted by three furry sisters: Gracie – the sweetest dog ever to live, Frannie – the craziest and funniest dog ever and Princess Pretty Paws – the cat you have to love. You’ll have lots of fun with these guys as you grow. I’ll write you again soon. I can already feel you, well not exactly — I already feel some nausea. I know you are in there and I love the way I feel!
Love always,
Mom
