Dear Daughter,

If you are visiting from MODSquad, welcome! I hope you will get cozy, dig around, and stay awhile.

Dear Baby Girl,

I sat in the waiting room. I was doing what you do in the doctors’ office waiting room;

I was waiting.

But it was a special kind of waiting. I was waiting to find out if you were a boy or a girl. Of course, I had no preference but my heart was certain that you were a girl.

As I waited, I had a pen in one hand and my trusty journal in the other hand. I found journaling to be the only way that I got through the worrying that also came with these doctors’ appointments.

I stepped out in faith knowing you were a girl, without picture proof, and began praying for you.

I was praying typical motherly prayers such as… passion for Christ, strength, health, love for others, protection from evil, and then wham! I was hit.

Read the rest of the letter to my baby girl on MODSquad today.
