Daddy misses baby

Em has been at our house in Texas for a little over a week, and her husband Mark is joining us all for the holiday weekend, arriving tomorrow. They talk almost every day, and Mark insists that Em hold the phone to her belly so he can talk to the baby, too. It never fails to get a reaction in the form of a kick or other movement. At 27 weeks, she has been reacting to sounds for a little while now, and definitely likes the tone of daddy's voice. Last night Mark sang his favorite Carole King song for kids of all ages, "Alligators All Around." This all makes me teary...must be sympathy hormones??
