Today is Ash Wednesday dear. It’s when we we attend mass and through the sacramental ashes, we are reminded to turn from sin, and to stay faithful to the gospel. A reminder that we are only dust and will return to dust upon death. And what is important is our soul and spiritual life, and life doesn’t end, it continues with the Lord if we choose it so. And Daddy and mummy went for mass today. And we prayed for you too. We hope you’ll see the importance of need for spiritual guidance in life because without God, life is meaningless. Without God, there wouldn’t be you.

Anyhow, we also went for our next check up with you. We got to see a 3D image of you and you’re beautiful. It looks like you have Daddy’s nose and ears, and Mummy’s mouth and eyes. Thank God that all your organs and functions are good and well. However, mummy’s placenta is lying quite low but nothing to fret about now. Hopefully with your growth, it will move so mummy can deliver you naturally. But in a case if mummy needs a C section, so be it. I’ll go through anything to bring you safely into this world my love.

We got to see your perfect fingers, all five of them, and you’re the shyest baby I’ve seen. You kept hiding your face from the scanner. You are so adorable. But you let Daddy and Mummy to have a peak of your beautiful face. I wonder how cute you will be when you fatten up. Right now, you’re 450g, about 16cm long and 22 weeks 3 days old. You have the cutest feet and thighs. I feel like I could just kiss you to bits! There was afew seconds when you put your hands like a hamster and mummy called you my dearest hamster. Doctor Ong laughed about it.

Thank God for this smooth successful scan and Praise the Lord for your creation. You are gorgeous darling girl. Absolutely perfect. And we love you so much. So so so much.
