As we begin the holiday season with Thanksgiving, I am overwhelmed with a feeling of supreme felicity. I do not remember a Thanksgiving in my life that I felt so content. This year I want to remember every single moment of this season. This is my first year as Mrs. Cotti and John and I could not be more excited about our new family on the horizon.

I talk to Charlotte all the time; I tell her how she changed my life the moment she was conceived. I tell her that I have never been so happy, so scared, so fascinated, so anxious, so excited and so in love. I tell her how much I love her father for helping me, loving me, taking care of us... I tell her that I cannot wait to meet her and grow with her.

This time next year our little girl will be here to celebrate with us- can you believe it?!
