Another letter to my child

I wrote this letter a few months before we found out we would be parents.

    Dear sweet one,
It's been eight months since I to you for the first time. With each month that passes I learn more about trusting in God's timing. Jeremiah 1:5 says, "Before I made you in your mother's womb, I chose you. Before you were born, I set you apart for a special work" and Matthew 10:30 says, "God even knows how many hairs are on your head." This reminds me that God has chosen you to be mine - He has set you apart. He knows you personally, and He loves you. So I don't have to worry. God will put you right where you belong, right when you are supposed to be there. Until I can tell you face-to-face, I love you.
