Normally relatives soften, total strangers start conversations and family members take extra care of you as you look forward to the day of your child's birth. Of course there can also be difficulties and complications, morning sickness and sibling jealousy but all in all, preparing for the birth of a baby is a special time. But what's it going to be like with a baby in the house? How will I prepare for his or her arrival and what will be the best way to nurture and enjoy this time? Take heart from these encouraging letters written by writers Denise and Timothy George to their yet to be born child. They are honest, heart-warming and full of wisdom.
