Dear Baby Roark:
The date was April 1! That's the day that daddy and I found out about you! We were so excited! Mommy cried for about 5 minutes. Daddy was grinning from ear to ear!
We had been praying for you for a really long time! God finally answered our prayers! Having you living inside me is very different! I can't feel you yet but I know you're there! You remind me by numerous trips to the bathroom day and night! Oh, but I can't complain! My heart overflows with joy just knowing I'll get to see your face in about 7 months!
My mind wonders, what will you look like! Who will you resemble most?!!! Daddy and I are constantly joking about who you'll take after! Your daddy is an amazing man! He's funny, witty, and very loving! ] Hopefully you'll be tall like him! Mommy is only 5 ft tall!
Every time I think of you, I thank God! You see, He's fashioning you in the very secret place. He's creating you fearfully and wonderfully! Nothing else really matters to daddy and I other than for you to have a personal relationship with Jesus one day! Until that day, we'll love you, and raise you to learn to know who Jesus is! The people at church can't wait either. I have this feeling you'll be one very loved little baby no matter where you go!!!!
Are you a boy or girl?!!! We don't know yet and have to wait to find out! Mommy doesn't like to wait but for this it'll be all worth it. Mommy and Daddy hope you're a boy but if you're a little girl we'll be just as thrilled! Mommy has been surrounded by girls all her life so a little boy would be cool!
Well my angel, mommy needs to go get some sleep. Daddy snored ALL NIGHT LONG and kept me awake. I wonder if you can hear that?!!! If so he probably kept you awake too! So sleep some for me inside there!
Counting down the days until we see you!
Love,
Mommy

SO happy for you! and want you to know that I'll be praying for you, your family and your special little blessing every day!
