Dear Little One: Today you were supposed to be born. We had a long walk in the woods to encourage you along, but there is no sign of you yet.
This is what the world looked like on your day.

Hope everything comes out okay. I wish my mom had been a blogger; I don’t even know if there’s a black and white picture of her when she was expecting me.

My congratulations to you!! I just hear from Marguerite about Vivian. The news, of course, brought me to your & James’ blogs, which I always find interesting and moving. I love the pictures, too. Young Vivian has a great deal going for her!

Sleep whenever she sleeps, that’s the only advice I can give, oh, and accept every single offer of help and smile graciously. It gives the helper as much pleasure to help as it gives you respite!
