Letter to our future baby:
Dear Oliver,
As of writing, you are 26 weeks old, This will be the first of a series of letters I will write to you, my dearest future baby boy. You must know that your dad and I love you from the day you were a day old, and have been hoping and praying for your coming. You are such a blessing to us both, and to both our families, and we cannot wait to meet you someday soon.
Currently, all we know of you is that you have these hobbies that you particularly enjoy doing at certain times of the day:
Hobby #1
Swimming- I think this is your top sport, especially cool to see when we take a peek at you during ultrasounds. How does it feel to have that cold gel and some sound waves over you? I hope they don't hurt you.
Hobby #2
Tumbling - You love to do this in conjunction with kicking, enjoy your big swimming and wading pool while you can :) Lucky for your it is all yours to enjoy and no twin sister or brother to share the space (I am claustrophobic myself, so I understand if you are doing little tumbles of joy in there with all that freedom.
Hobby #3
Kicking- You love to do little kicks any time of the day, but especially when I drink milk, and eat apples. I suppose you love them? You will be happy to know then that because of you, I've gotten over my lactose intolerance. I've never eaten so many healthy foods ever in my life! You are like my personal nutritionist and health counselor. Your first ever career, what do you know! :)
You love to get my attention when I sit still and watch tv, or try to find my perfect sleeping position at night as I lie in bed. You seem to like classical and jazz music, and I don't know if I imagine you tapping to the beat, which would be really cool if you did! Though, I think I will listen to less rock and alternative music, your kicks are getting more violent! I even witnessed my tummy raise up with your strong kicks.
You will eventually very soon come to realize that your dad is an athlete and an avid sports fan. I put there sports, because he really is into all kinds of it, he watches basketball, football, soccer, tennis, swimming, and is quite good at swimming, too, just like you! But he is best at soccer and floorball, his two favorite sports :) So, he is quite happy to see you being quite a little athlete yourself inside there! Hopefully you retain your sports skills, especially kicking, which would be quite a useful skill for floorball and soccer. I know he is dying to train you, little man!
Hobbily yours,
Your artistic non-sports mom and sporty dad
P.S. Your dad just competed in the annual China Floorball Championship in Beijing last Saturday, they got to the finals undefeated (9 teams in total), that means they won every match before the finals.Your dad scored 2 goals, including the winning goals in one of the stage 2 matches! They then played against the Shanghai Sharks and your dad's team dominated the game but was unable to score and the opponents managed to get 1 point 5 minutes before the game, a very tight game indeed! And so in the end, the Sharks won.
