Sofia Ines Pieprzyk

Don't worry, we'll have a tutorial on pronunciation.  I have a billion pictures and those are coming soon, but I've had no sleep and breastfeeding is a full-time job.  Thank you, friends, for your thoughts and prayers.  I love you and I mean that. 



4/11/11, 4:54pm, 7 lbs, 1 oz, 20 in long

 The birth was amazing and I still can't believe she's really here.

    Congratulations! God has given you the perfect gift! She is ABSOLUTELY P-E-R-F-E-C-T!!! A true beauty just like her mommy!

    I wanted so badly to send you a gift, but didn't know where to send it. Since I couldn't send you a personal gift, here is a song. I hope you like it.

  26. Oh, my. She is breathtaking. Congratulations!!

    Your lives are about to get even more wonderful than you knew they could be. (Not every single moment, of course, so don't panic if you mostly feel sleep deprived and dazed for the next few weeks.) Ultimately, though, the love just overwhelms everything else.

    I know this is a dream a long time in the making. So happy for you all!

When you leave me a comment, my phone chimes. I run to it from across the house, anxious to read what you've said. I save them in my email and read them multiple times a day, which is why you may not get an immediate response but I promise I eventually respond to every comment that has an email address.

You make me smile - I just thought you should know.
