See you Tomorrow

Hi Shira,
Well your day of arrival is upon us. I want to apologize for not writing as much about our anticipation of you as I did for your big sister. Before she was born we didn't have anyone else to obsess over so it was easier to collect my thoughts about what was to come. This time we've had her to distract us from what you will bring us. That is all about to change in a big way. Tomorrow you will become a lot more difficult to care for.
The focus of the family is going to change a lot, too. Sidra will have to adjust to receiving less of the spotlight. We expect that it won't be that easy for her but that in time she will become a really good big sister for you.
In a recent ultrasound you were declared to be around six pounds. I'm guessing that you will tip the scales at about 7 and a half pounds, maybe a little more. I'm curious to know how much hair you have right away, among many other things.
Well your mom has gotten a little more tense about the whole thing the last few days. Her Aunt Debbie is here to help us out but the restrictions on visitors the hospital is enforcing is making the whole thing difficult. They aren't allowing many visitors at all and Sidra won't be able to see you until you come home. That will be a few days because your mom will need some time to recover from the surgery.
We're really excited about your arrival and how our family is going to change.

Like I said,
See you tomorrow....
love, aba
