Today was the day we finally told Makela that she is going to be a big sister. First, she danced around the living room, singing a tune of "Yay! I'm going to have a baby brother or baby sister! Yippee!" Then she proclaimed, "I'll be able to help you feed the baby. And change its diapers. And all SORTS of stuff!"
And of course Makela has told everyone we've seen today, "Guess WHAT?!? My mommy has a BABY in her TUMMY!"
And tonight, my heart just melted. I'd tucked Makela into bed, and just a few minutes later, she came out to tell me this: "Mommy? I have a new routine I want to do now. Every night, I'm going to kiss your tummy, right where the baby is. That way it will know that I love it."
