A New Thorson Adventure: Letter To The Little Ones

Dear Little Ones,

Tomorrow is the big day! The day when we can finally hold you in our arms. We cannot wait to see you and to meet you and to have both of you as a part of our family. We have had so many wonderful adventures in this life together so far, but none will compare to the adventures we will have with you. You are already the lights of our life and we are overjoyed to be your parents.

We have spent the last 8 months getting ready for your arrival. We have dreamed and hoped, prayed and cried, and waited and prepared for this day to come. We will do our best to be your parents, to love you even in our weaknesses, and we promise to never ever leave you or love you any less than we already do.

We want you to know some very special things about this world you are about to come into. This world may look harsh and cold, full of war and pain, but it is actually full of joy and of peace. There are so many people who love you and will be with you as you grow. Not just us, but your aunt and uncles, your grandparents and great-grandparents, and our dear family and friends who are so excited to meet you.

Another reason this world is full of joy, peace and hope, is because of a special God that created you. This God loved you so much and loves us so much that He has created you to be a part of our family and to experience His love for you through us. He shares His love with you in lots of ways. Through the world He created for you to experience and enjoy, through the other people He created to love you and to be loved and through all the things you will see, think and feel during your live.

But most of all, the Bible (a very important book you will come to know and love) tells us that: "In the beginning was the Word...and the Word was God...and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us...this Light was the Light of all peoples...and the Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has never overcome it". This Light that has given you life is Jesus Christ. He is the King of this world and all creation and He is the one who has breathed Life into your beautiful hearts. He will always be with you and the Light that He is within you will never disappear or be overcome.

We love you with everything that we are and will be, with all of our strength and all of our hearts. You are more precious to us than anything in this world, even our own lives. We cannot wait to meet you, precious little gifts from God, and promise to always love you. See you tomorrow.

Your Proud Parents,
Ryan and Kealy
