For My Baby Johann

3/14/2012
Dear Johann Paolo,
Hello there my baby! Right now, we are on our 32nd week. Four more weeks to go & mommy will already see you. Your dad & Ate Mishka are excited to see you too:) As you know, mommy is on bed rest so you will be well. It’s ok I’m not complaining, I actually like the thought of having quiet moments with you & singing & reading for you like what I did to your Ate Mishka. I believe that God put me in this situation so I can nurture you physically, emotionally & spiritually. Before my bed rest, mommy was very stressed with work so I guess this is God’s way of telling me to slow down & enjoy you while you are totally dependent on me. You know what, we named you after a holy person, Blessed Pope John Paul II, whom your father & I admired so much. All of us prayed to have you, your Ate Mishka was the first to know that you are coming even if mom doesn’t know yet. She also told me that you will be a boy and indeed God answered her prayer:)
Tomorrow is mommy’s 35th birthday. My only wish is to hear mass so we will be blessed & I can pray for your good health. Mommy may be in a difficult situation right now but I know that God is with us & a lot of people are praying for us. I just want you to know that I’ll do everything for you. Your dad & I will try our best to provide you a good future & better life. Mom cannot always protect you but rest assured that I will prepare you for the realities of life. The odds are very small that you will have a younger brother or sister. So you & Ate MIshka must love & care for each other always.
Johann, enjoy your stay in mommy’s womb. We are expecting you on April 18, 2012. Don’t worry we are preparing everything for you. Your every kick is an assurance that you are doing ok in mommy’s tummy. Your dad, Ate Mishka & you are truly God’s gifts to me & I will treasure you all as long as I live. I love you my son & I am sooo excited to hold you in my arms.
Loving you always,
Mommy Jhett
