6 years ago today, I got this email from my friend Alley...



i couldn't sleep tonight, so i was just lying in bed, thinking about random stuff. i was trying to imagine what jack looks like. you know how you get a picture in your head and then when you actually see it, the picture just fades away? well, i've created a little picture of jack in my head, and i'm sure my picture is no where near the actual cuteness of baby jack. i was thinking about how blessed you two are. i can just see that cute child-like smile that scott gets while he is holding his son and looking down at him with tears in his eyes. i can see kristin sitting up in bed, hair pulled back, looking at her husband and her son with a face full of joy and excitement - with a little bit of exhaustion mixed in as well. then, it dawned on me. kristin, you're a mommy. and scott, you're a daddy. wow. that's huge. and guess what, jack is the luckiest baby in the world because if you two are as good as parents as you are friends, this is one blessed baby! plus, his aunt alley will bring him all kinds of gifts from her travels and he will love her visits!

i know that you won't read this until you return from the hospital, but i just wanted to let you know that i am thinking of you and praying for you as your family begins. and tell jack that his aunt alley will be there soon!

i love you!

Couldn't have said it better myself.
Happy (late) Birthday to my little man...who is no longer little :(
