I can't hug a photo

Em is emailing pictures of herself and her tummy development to her Dad and me. This last one we received is definite evidence of a baby on the way, since she's now well into her second trimester. She looks so great. At this stage, the baby is reacting to sounds, we've learned, so Em says she talks to her/him as she goes about her day. I can't wait to see her next month when I visit RI from TX. Pictures might say a thousand words, but I can't hug a photo. And I might have a few words to say to the baby, too.
