OPEN LETTER TO MY BABY

Baby Socias, I just got home from my very last doctors apt. to check on you. As usual, all of our vitals came back perfect and you sounded great on the heart monitor. The doctors always joke about how you sound like a galloping horse, your heartbeat is so strong. You haven't moved an inch,
