To my baby girl.

Eden,

I love you so much more than you will ever know, but I promise that I will spend everyday trying to let you feel my love as much as humanly possible. I know that these last two weeks have been so hard on you. One day everything was fine and you were living in the only house you've known since you were born. The next day mommy was rushing to the hospital and you were suddenly having to move to Nana's early so that I could stay on bed rest. I can't imagine how hard and unsettling that must have been and I am so sorry. I know it's been so hard waiting for Daddy and the doggies and the kitty to come live with us again; but they will be here in three short days. Mommy hasn't been able to do some of the things we use to do, and I know that is so tough. I miss the things we use to do too. I miss giving you "uppies" and taking you places. I miss being able to go to the pool with you. I miss the normalcy that we had created for you. I know right now it seems like forever, but it's only ten weeks. Soon after baby Judah gets here, safe and sound I will be able to give you your "uppies" and take you fun places and do all of the things we use to do. It's going to be a hard transition, but mommy is so proud of you and how much of it you have handled. Tonight you had a really hard time falling asleep. You cried for an hour and forty minutes, and it broke my heart, but I understand that we might have a few of those nights while you get use to things and that is ok. I hope that when you are older and read this you will remember the good times and that these hard times will be just a far off distant memory. You will always be my baby girl, my first born and nothing and no one can replace that. I have treasured every moment I've gotten to spend with you for the last two and a half years. I love you, and I love being your mommy.

Love,

Mommy
