psssst...... Dear baby Gabriel......
At almost 3 weeks old, I'm sure u are starting to figure a few things out for yourself..... But I'd love to share some things with you....some of this you may already know though.
I'm your great Aunt Sherri..... We haven't met in person yet, but hopefully it won't be too long before we do. We did however meet over FaceTime though , u r so cute, your eyes are so dark, and they have a sparkle in them. I saw u were crazy after your fist, so I told mommy she better feed you....she said she just did.... Yet I'm with you, when you want more, you just want more,and somemtimes the more you want the more you want! ( have u seen that funny commercial on tv yet with that little girl that says when u want more, u just want more). Oh and I heard you cooing... A few more times of me making that noise with my tongue , I know U will be making that noise right back at me. So, u met Nae-nae at the airport yesterday huh? She's pretty sweet dont you think? Her and your mommy have grown up together, your mommy is just a little bit older than nae-nae. They have had so many good times growing up. When your great grandma Mona (she can't wait to meet you, but she won't get on an airplane , her silly!) used to take those two shopping, after about an hour , ur mommy was done shopping, she was ready to go. They always got an Easter outfit, this may be the first year they didn't get one! You see, they are pretty spoiled too! I'm not sure if you have face timed with your great uncle greg or not, but he has always called your mommy "Em-re-doodles" in fact, I think he still does. Nae-Nae tells me that she got up with you her first morning there, so mommy could have some extra sleep....she tells me you ate really good, you had a really big poopy diaper and once she changed you, she was picking out an outfit for u to wear,,but before she could, you were fast asleep....so for hours you were in a diaper, a cuddly blanket, snuggled up against nae, fitting into her like a puzzle piece..... Both of you content, and happy!!!
Just so you know Gabriel, Saturday is your mommys birthday, ( she is 29) and Sunday of coarse is her first Mother's Day ( and u are the perfect gift) and..your mommy and daddys,2nd wedding anniversary is this week too. I know this is an exciting and busy week for everyone. I know you haven't been in your daddy's strong arms yet.... Tomorrow is the day .... You see, you have a really special daddy.... There aren't many brave men like him these days. He is a United States serviceman. He is in the army and he was away at training while you were born. He graduates at noon tomorrow, then an 8 hour drive to meet you! What an exciting day! He's a pretty special guy...he loves your mommy so much, you will learn from him, and I bet u will be his little shadow someday, and want to grow up to be just like him!
So,,you spent your first 2 weeks with your grandma Ann there, way to start the spoiling off! She's pretty special huh? She makes the best cakes, you'll find out.
I wanna tell you about your grandpa Stephen.... He for sure is smiling down from heaven. He is a proud papa! You see , you have his name as your middle name....and pssssst, just so you know your mommy had him completely wrapped around his little finger! I'm telling you, your mommy was his princess... She could do no wrong, and whatever hers wanted, hers got from her daddy! He was special that way, and through out your life, you will see more and more of him as we share him with you, and those goes for your great pa-pa Elliot too.... You will for sure know both of them, how can you not, they r big reasons why your mommy is who she is today. I bet you can't wait to meet your Uncle Brad..... He will take right to you , hes gonna be your fishing buddie someday! there are more people that want to meet you, along with auntie Michelle and tony and claudie. There are just so many people you will meet..... You can be guaranteed you will have lots of spoiling coming your way!,,
You Gabriel are a true blessing to this world.... A gift from God.. He already has big plans for you. Next time we chat, I'll sing you a song you will never forget " Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so".
PSSSSSST...... I love you Gabriel..... This will be our means of bonding..... Blogging, FaceTime, packages in the mail, texting...... Anytime you wanna coo at me, you know now how to find me! I love you baby boy....
Because of His AMAZING GRACE.....
