Natalya




You're you, uniquely you. In this way you are perfect. Your slate almond-shaped eyes, your 25th percentile head, your 75th percentile length, your 15th-ish percentile weight. At 3 and a half months your small, long being is perfect.

Your dad and I took you to the doctor yesterday. We were concerned about your reflux and whether or not it will affect your weight gain and your overall comfort. Every day we make decisions for you and about you. Every day we reassess, revisit, adjust, modify, and discuss your well being. We talk about how much you you're pooping, how much you've slept, how much you've eaten and when. We love you and want you to thrive, no matter what it humanly takes. Some decisions are harder than others, we have limits, but loving you is what we do. We're your parents.

So far so good though, you wake up every morning smiling.
