Dear little cryings,
I think we're about 99% sure we've found the perfect name for you.
It's elegant but also strong.
Different and unique without sounding like it's trying too hard.
But most of all, I really feel like it's your name. More than any other name.
For the first time, I've stopped casually searching for alternatives, just for kicks.
Something about this name feels so much like you.
Speaking of strong, I had an appointment with our midwife on Friday.
It always takes her quite a while to zero in on your heart beat for a long enough time because you're moving around so much! And then you start punching and kicking. Such a sass pot.
Your shenanigans make our midwife giggle and when you finally do let us hear your galloping pony heart beat, she always smiles widely. In almost disbelief, she shakes her head and makes a comment about how strong you are.
That same routine happens almost every visit now.
I love it.
So when I found this print, I knew it had to go in your room.
Always stay strong, you crazy little cryings girl.
Love,
Mom

Listening to the heartbeat was one of my favorite moments during my pregnancy. Nothing sounds more amazing than those quick lub-dubs! Such a good feeling to finally decide on a name!

cute post! that print is adorable, too.
This made me cry. I'm sure that nothing is stronger than a mother's love and I'm sure you will be the number one source of strength for your little girl! :)
GAH. I love this so, so much.
