Dear Ella,

You are such a good girl! For the past few weeks I have been asking for you not to be born before May 21. People always remind me that the birthday is not up to the mom but the baby. No one knows you better than me today Ella, and I know you’re a good girl!

See, your Grandmother and Grandfather decided to leave on a last minute trip. Your father and I had no idea, and your Grandmother Lola asked for you not to be born on her birthday or mothers day or before she came back home. So I asked you everyday and that’s exactly what you did.

Now it’s time for you to be born! Your birthday is supposed to be in three days. I will wait for you. It’s your turn to decide! 😀

Love,

Mom
