I received the first photo of our baby in the mail today. It’s a lovely black-and-white shot from Emily’s first ultrasound, and the little one is in clear view. I wasn’t exactly sure what I was looking at—is that the crown or is that the bum?—but apparently I'm not the only who couldn't make heads or tails, since the picture has a helpful digital arrow pointing the way. Across the bottom of the photo, in machine type, it says, "Hi, Mommy and Daddy." How incredible: peering at generations of DNA waiting to burst forth this unique little creature, so safe inside his Mom. I put the picture on the refrigerator so I can pat it every time I walk by. “Hi, Baby.”
I do the same thing. But I'm not sure which end I'm greeting either!
ReplyDeleteI too have our grandbaby on the fridge..and give her a little kiss now and then..still trying to figure out what I am looking at in spite of the little arrow but I was touched by the "Hi Mommy and Daddy" ... just the thought that my baby is going to be a Daddy! wow... Cole told Mark he wants a boy cousin.
