Dear Jellybean,

Mommy and I have decided to call you Jellybean because that's your size and shape in the ultrasound. We started calling you a peanut at first because you were so small but Aunty Audrey thought that Jellybean would be a better name and we thought so too!

Anyway, just to let you know first, I have started an account of what you owe Mommy and me. This is because you really are not making it easy for Mommy. Mommy feels nauseous all day and night because of your growing inside her. She can't eat properly and every strong smell makes her very very sick. She also always feels very tired and she simply can't concentrate on what she's doing. Daddy is doing his best to take care of Mommy and I am getting very tired as well. So, you OWE us big time!!!

Of course, I'm just kidding, Jellybean. Mommy and I totally love you and are very excited about you. We are already planning how to decorate your room and we are preparing the flat for when you are with us. We are planning how to bring Mommy and you to the hospital when you are ready to come out of Mommy. We are also planning which primary school to send you to. And if you are a boy, what vocation we hope you'll end up in when you serve National Service.

Mommy and I are also hoping that you'll grow up to love music and want to learn to play musical instruments because we love music as well. We hope that you'll love to make music and listen to music like Mommy and Daddy! We also hope that you'll enjoy reading as much as we do.

Mommy and I are praying every moment that you'll develop properly inside Mommy and come out strong and healthy. And when you grow up, we want you to be a God-Fearing Christian who will make us proud.

Well, Jellybean, continue to grow strongly and healthily. Mommy is doing her best to give you what you need and want. Try to stop making her feel sick, ok?

Mommy and Daddy
