An Open Letter to our Future Child

Dear Little One,

We are waiting for you and trying our best to be patient for the perfect time that God has already ordained for us. We are not pregnant with you yet but we are hopeful that we will be soon. We had an appointment with our Doctor today to make sure everything was all set for this Monday. We have been trying to have you for quite some time now and we are excited that Monday brings new possibilities and a new hope for meeting you as soon as possible. We are having something called IUI done at 10 a.m. and hopefully it will help us have you! Here's a picture of your dad and me right before he gave me the injection (I'm scared of needles so I made him do it-hopefully you don't inherit that ha!)

We want you to know that we are so excited to meet you, even though we are not sure when that will be. This journey to find you has been met with excitement, nervousness, suffering and a new found trust and hope in God. Our prayer for you now is that even when you are met with obstacles in your life you know the God who is our peace. He is why we have made it this far and still come to a place of hope and faith.

If we don't see you for a while, know that our excitement only grows the longer that we wait. We rest in the hope that God is not finished with us yet. Know that above all else, you are wanted and will be brought to us in the perfect moment for both you and us.

I am nervous about Monday but more excited than ever about the possibility of you being conceived. Until we hear the news that its worked we will be praying for you and your precious life. We will be praying that you will be healthy. We will be praying about who you will be and who you will influence. We will be praying for your future spouse. We will be praying for you. You are covered in prayer already, you are so wanted and so loved.

All our love,

xoxo

Mom and Dad
