Elatia is 8 weeks preggers now. On her FaceBook status she has a birth watch chart. Today it says that Elatia's embryo has knees! Knees are good! They are good for walking, running, crawling n stuff. Can't wait to see what's growing next week. It seems to me that if an embryo has knees, it would be a baby then, right?
When Elatia told me she was pregnant, I was in such a state of shock, I totally forgot what I had for her on this momentous day, but she didn't! I couldn't believe she remembered, it made me feel good, not only because she remembered, but because she really wanted it.
Not long after she told me the news of her pregnancy, she asked for it. On Dec 22, 1980 I was 9 weeks pregnant and started a journal to my un-born child, Elatia. I was living in IL and was quite lonely. My family was in FL. Elatia's father worked 2 jobs and was gone from 7am to 1am, so I decided to start writing to the baby about what I was going through to help with the loneliness. I use to read the journal to her as a bed time story when she was really young. She's been reading it and is finding it interesting. Like every time her father would try to feel her move, she would stop! hahahahaha!
She works a lot & now I work too, gotta have my Grammy shoppin money, so I look forward to hearing more about my journal to her and what she thinks about it. She is writing to her baby too. Her and JR kept a journal during their entire European vacation. What a great idea! Journals are like family history books that can be handed down generation to generation. What a wonderful gift!
It's All Good in the Grammy-hood!
