Griffin,
I am so excited to tell you that you are going to be a BIG BROTHER!! I know, I know you’re only 9 months old right now and have no clue whats going on 
Mommy and Daddy haven’t been able to conceive a baby since 2009 when I had a miscarriage, which is how we were led to you through adoption! We had been talking recently about waiting until after the holidays to make any decision about whether or not we’d pursue another adoption or if we’d give fertility treatments a shot. I don’t think I ever really thought we’d end up pregnant on our own. Yesterday, I was proven wrong when I took a pregnancy test and it was positive!
A lot of emotions have flooded through me the past 48 hours and a lot of them have to do with you. First, I think you are going to be a fun big brother. You are already an incredible little person and I’m so glad that, whoever this baby is in my tummy, will have YOU to look up to! Second, I felt sad at the thought that we only have 9 more months of just you. I’m not ready to share myself, I still want to be selfish with you. I know, though, that this is meant to be and our family is being knit together as this baby is. What I can’t wait for is to watch you and this little one grow up together. I hope you are best friends. I know you’ll fight, you’ll get on each others’ nerves, and you’ll work together to get on mine Whether you have a little brother or little sister, I know you’ll love them with the same intensity you’ve shown Daddy and I.
Please know, sweet boy, that this changes nothing about our love for you. Actually, this just affirms what we’ve known all along about God’s plan for you to be our son. Had this pregnancy happened even a year ago, we wouldn’t have you. I can’t bear that thought. We were meant to be family and God knew what He was doing all along. You are my firstborn. My baby boy. You have taught me how to be a mommy. You have shown me how much love my heart can hold, and more.
You will always be my baby and I will forever be grateful for the gift that you are.
All my love,
Mama
