A letter to my girls...


Dear Campbell,

So soon we will meet your baby sister. Over the past few weeks I have watched you become more and more excited about and interested in the baby in mommy's tummy. You love to rub my tummy and say hi baby Callie! You have no idea how much this makes my heart smile! You are going to be an amazing big sister, I just know it! 

We went to the store to pick out a few gifts for Callan, and you did so good. We picked out a teddy bear, lamb paci holder, and a car seat toy. You can't wait to give them to her. 

As I look at you these last few weeks, you have become so much more a little girl in my eyes. The "babyness" is gone away. As much as it kills me to see this gone, you are at such a fun age. You are so talkative, adventurous, creative, smart, and just a joy to be around. You understand so much more than you did just a few months ago. 

We have been talking about how you are going to help with your baby sister. You can't wait to hold her, kiss her, and give her a bath. The love you have for her already is so sweet. I'm so excited to see you become a Big Sister!

As we have this new baby girl, Campbell, my hopes for you is that you feel no shortage of love from your daddy and me, but rather feel the love double and triple as we love on you and your sister. I pray that you love your little sister as well as your little two year old self can. And I hope you know how proud your mommy and daddy are of you.

I pray that you transition into this role well. I hope you love being a big sister and thrive at it...we know you will. 

Sweet girl, I get tears in my eyes thinking about seeing you love on your baby sister. This might be one of the most special things I will ever see. 

Campbell, you are such a big part of this process of bringing a new baby home. We are so thankful we get to experience this with you. We're so proud of you already!

Love you to the moon and back,

Mommy



To my littlest girl Callan,

I could not be more excited to meet you. My momma heart is so ready to see your face, and love and kiss on you. To smell your newborn smells, and count those perfect fingers and toes. 

You are coming into a family full of love. We already love you so much, and you are pretty blessed to be falling into the little sister spot in this family. 

Your big sister, Campbell, is going to be the best big sister you could ever ask for! Be prepared for her to give you lots of hugs and kisses, and have toddler hands patting your head and body. 

You are so incredibly lucky to have her as a big sister. I pray that one day you will love the gift that you girls will have being sisters. It is simply the best! I absolutely couldn't imagine my life without my baby sister in it! Your Aunt Casey can agree that growing up was hard at times, we could fight, but we love each other so much and are so blessed to be sisters!

My hopes and dreams for you are to become a light in this world for Jesus. I pray that you come to know Him early in life and love people like He loves us. I pray this for both you and your sister!

You are already a joy in my life and heart baby girl. I can't wait to lay my eyes on you and introduce you to your sister. I can't wait to see your daddy love on his 2nd little girl...you, my dear, are extremely blessed in this department...your daddy is the best! I'm so excited to start doing life with you in it!

We are so ready to welcome you with open arms and lots of kisses and hearts full of love for you! Promise.

Love you forever,

Mommy
