Dear Jared,

You've been a pretty good baby so far. You didn't give me morning sickness, you aren't a huge baby and your hiccups have become more occasional. I know life on the inside is pretty great, but I've compiled a list of reasons why you should come live on the outside with the rest of us.

1. Colors- we have a much greater variety out here than you do in there.
2. Music sounds better when you are not underwater- I try to play you some good classical music and also sing to you regularly, but you really aren't getting the full effect.
3. Affection- there are a lot of people who want to give you kisses and cuddle you. You really can't have that until you come out.
4. You are gooey- I'm sure it is not comfortable, so we'll give you a bath.
5. Singing/crying- you'll love it (trust me), but again it doesn't work when you are submerged in fluid.
6. Good looking people- your grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, and your dad and me are all pretty easy on the eyes. You can come see us.
7. More space- you're cramped in there and everyone knows it. You get your own room.
   
8. Parties- there are a lot going on and you're really not officially invited until you are born. You wouldn't want to wait a whole year to experience the 4th of July, would you?

That's all I can think of right not, but it is a pretty great deal out here. Love you and see you soon!

Love,
Mom
