A letter to our embryos

Hi Embabies,
You made it! Our two. You beat the odds, and made it over the hurdle of 5 days in a dish. You passed your first test. I know there are many more to come... but for now you are safe and sound in a state of suspended animation. Mommy and daddy love you very much, you’re the first thing we’ve made together. 

You have no idea how much we have prayed for you. Just the thought of you has been a wish for many years and our desire to become parents came many years before that. I am not sad that it didn’t happen naturally, because then there wouldn’t have been you. It hasn’t been an easy road.... and there were some days it was so dark. But here you are... 

We hope we get to meet you both. To snuggle you and love you. We hope we get to feel you kick and wiggle inside. We hope to watch you be born. We hope to teach you to walk and talk, sing and ride a dirt bike (ok maybe just daddy). Most of all we hope you are happy and healthy.

Maybe one day you’ll read this and know just how much you’re loved and know how very wanted you were.

Forever your parents
xoxo
