Waiting for the Princess . . .

Girl, you better hurry up!!!   A lot of people have put their lives on hold, and are waiting in line to hold you.  Tomorrow's the Big Day!  Unless you have a surprise for us and decide to make your debut between now and then.  We'd have no problem with that either. 

I arrived in Louisville about four days ago, on Saturday.  Late Friday afternoon, Papa INSISTED that I schedule my flight and be on my way up here.  So I did.  I have loved being with your Mommy and Daddy.  They're so happy you're coming soon.  I love feeling you move in your Mommy's tummy.  Boy, have you got her tummy really big!  She looks so cute with you in her tummy.  You make her tummy kinda heavy, but she never complains.  Your Daddy is always rubbing her tummy and asking her if she feels all right.  They are such sweet parents and are just delighted and thrilled God has given them such a precious gift as you.

Papa wishes he could be here when you are born, but as I told you earlier, he is not feeling well and is unable to travel right now.  But his heart is here with your Daddy and Mommy, and with you especially.  He'll be so happy when y'all come to Mississippi for a visit in a few weeks.  But for now, your Uncle Josh has Skype and the webcam all set up and ready to go.  Your Daddy has his packed and ready to take to the hospital.  Then Papa and your aunts and uncles at home will be able to see you when I do!  Isn't that neat?  I love technology. 

Your other grandparents arrived today.  They are soooo happy!  Grammie has gotten so much cool stuff for you!  Your Mommy, Daddy, and I are going to dinner with them and Uncle Gene tonight -- an early celebration!  We, everyone,  love you to pieces.  Rest now, sweet baby; tomorrow is a big day.


Stella, God has made you so wonderfully.  God is so good.  He is so great.

I love you very much,
Emmie
