dear baby - 11/02/2011

you may think this is silly, because, well.... you don't exist yet. but tonight mummy bought you the peter rabbit books - a set of 23 books to read to you. in 2-3 weeks when you get put back inside me, we are going to read you a story every night. we want you to feel like you're all cosy and at home, and show you what you can look forward to if you stay with us. its not going to be an easy ride, we know that, but thats why the stories will hopefully help to comfort you and help to comfort mummy and daddy in this crazy journey.

by the time we have found out if you're staying with us, we will be half way through the books. so to hear the rest, you're going to have to stick around hehe. we can keep reading them until you grow inside me and you can hear my voice, then you will be able to let me know which ones you like and which ones you don't by giving me the odd kick here and there - not too hard mind, mummy's only little. then soon, when you're here in mummy and daddy's arms, we promise to keep reading to you, just like mummys daddy read to her when she was little. there are lots more stories we csn read too, about magical creatures, and prince and princesses, and animals that talk - like the lion king, one of mummys favourites.

so, the books will be here one day next week, so we will get them all ready for you for when you come home. please stay with us. we promise to love you lots and lots.
love mummy and daddy xxx
