Dear Skyler,

You're 15 weeks old now. You're supposed to be 12 cm long according to some magazine that we are using to track your development.

Mommy is recovering from her illness already. The biggest sign is your renewed demand for food. Mommy is so hungry again. :)

I figured that I should let you know what's going on in the world while you're in there so that you can catch up when you can read and understand what's going on. :)

Two weeks ago, terrorists let off five bombs in London. I think four of them were in their Metro system - their version of the MRT - and one on a bus. These terrorists are quite terrible people. They take away innocent lives and they don't seem to care.

Why am I telling you this? I hope that when you grow up and are able to think about what's going on in the world and what kind of place this world is, the world will be a safer and better one. Most governments of the world are trying to put an end to this problem but it is difficult.

If the world is still the same when you are old enough to be aware, I hope that you will learn to pray for the safety of all people and some how be aware of how you can help make the world a better place - to somehow bring some balance to the pain that terrorists cause. Remember: we have to share the love that Christ has shown us to all those around us. Everyone needs to know that God does care.

As always,

Mommy and Daddy love you!
