Dear Baby A,

Your Dad and I found out a few days ago that you are a little boy! The ultrasound tech asked if we wanted to know and we both agreed. She reported, "It's a boy. 100% sure." Your Dad had the biggest smile on his face - he looked like pure excitement. I must admit I was a bit surprised at the news, but I instantly fell in love all over again with you - my little boy. I don't know what it's like to be a little boy or to grow up into a man, so I might have to leave some of those lessons to your Dad who is one of the best men I know.

But, little boy, I do know one lesson I hope to be able to teach you. Regardless of your sex or gender, your heart is still the most wonderful part of you. Never forget that. Your heart was the very first glimpse of you I had; I hope that as you grow from a little boy into a man that you will always remember to love others fully, with all of your beautiful, beating heart.

Love,
Mom
