I love you this much...

Ok- I know I said I would give an update to my nite out with the sports writers last week, but it's just going to have to wait one more day... I have to write about the newest love of my life, Molly Kate... She is the unborn daughter of my dear friends Eric and Jen. They have an amazing website documenting Jen's pregnancy, they even played a little game where they would put up letters of her name slowly, and we would all have to guess... her name was revealed last week. Molly Kathryn, but in true southern style she is going to be called Molly Kate, or at least that's what here aunty beachgirl is going to call her.
Over the weekend Jen and Eric posted 4-D pictures of her... They are amazing, and I am in love! How is it that you can love something so much not even be able to hold her or kiss her yet...
So this is my lame attempt to explain to Molly Kate how much her aunty loves her and has loved her since before she was born...

Dear Molly Kate,
Hello there precious girl. I am your Aunty Heather and I live in Tennessee. I have loved you since you were in your mommy's tummy. In fact I probably loved you before that because I love your mommy and daddy so much. They are wonderful people, and you should listen to everything they say...
There is so much I want to teach you, so much I want to show you. You are so very loved, always remember that... Even though a lot of your aunties and uncles aren't there everyday to hug you and kiss you, just know that we think of you every single day.
So here's what you need to know, everything from Tiffany's is wonderful, the Tennessee Vols are the best in the world (don't listen to your old Uncle Bo, he thinks Alabama is the best, but he's delusional), never stop learning... Learn about things that people wouldn't expect you to know. Your Mommy is good about learning new things, she will always help you with that. Your Daddy is one of the smartest guys I know, he knows EVERYTHING about technical things, you are going to be totally hooked up with all kinds of electronic gadgets, trust me...

I cannot express to you how much I love you precious girl. You could not have better parents.. and a family that loves you so much.. that includes me. One thing you should always remember, it was something my grandmother always told me.. "pretty is as pretty does"... That means if you act pretty then you will be pretty. I know this to be true, you will be the prettiest little girl there is not only because you will be pretty on the outside, but I know how pretty you will be on the inside.

I am always here for you...
All my love and many blessings,
Aunty Heather
