To my little jack or lily

Since I was around 12, I've faithfully kept a journal. All through my homeschooling years into my year of stupid rebellion (haha) up until around 3 months ago. Its weird to be able to read what your 12 year old mind was thinking and how embarrassing to realize what a nerdy pathetic homeschooler I really was. But I refused to get rid of all the

Thanks for making me cry, katie. You are truly an incredible person and I am so excited for you and Micah! I can't wait to see you as a mommy and I already know that you're going to be amazing at it. You just have that nurturing mother thing about you, yet you're still young and so full of life and fun! This was a great post and like Laura said, "Don't stop writing!", you really do have an amazing gift for it!! Record every little detail, you will appreciate it later :)
I can't wait to meet Jack or Lily! :)

Love you! xoxo

well i guess we are just going to have to have kids with the same name. there's just no way to get around this life long dispute. :) you know, I've had a lot of friends get pregnant... as have you... but i've never felt so genuinely happy for anyone like i do for you. i've always known you'd make a great mom. and as far as putting your feelings in to words. just face it.. you can't. you never will be able to capture the depth of the emotion that you feel not just in your heart or your mind... but from your being... your very insides... for lack of a better description... your bowels. (it works for the bible right?) And that's just what makes it so amazing. Like a secret that no one else understands. You can't pin that down with a system of symbols.

by the way... that is not at all a reflection on your writing skills.

i couldn't have asked for a better friend than you kate. somehow our twisted bond of movie lines and donuts has grown into something we will never escape. we're stuck. :)
