Dear Owen,
I saw you for the first time today in 4D, it was an added bonus from the regular sonogram images, although you looked wonderful in those pictures too. I can honestly tell you I was taken back by the awesome works our God is performing in your mommy's womb. As I sat holding your mommy's hand listening to your heart beat, at 148 bpm, I knew I was the most blessed man in the world to have you both in my life. I cannot wait to hold you in my arms. Although I was awestruck, I did feel a bit selfish knowing that your Grandmother Meredith was sitting in the waiting room to catch her first glace at you and I wanted to take a few extra private moments with you and your mommy. So here is your first life lesson. Sometimes you will want to keep things all to yourself and not share with others. Those things may be toys, emotions, or God's light but remember this Son, life can be so much more joyful, rewarding, & blessed when we share our possessions, feelings, and light with others.
I love you Owen,
Daddy
Mathew 5:15
